Abstract In this paper we continue our study of distribution functions g(x) of n the sequence of blocks Xn = ( xxn1 , xxn2 , . . . , x xn ), n = 1, 2, . . ., where xn is an increasing sequence of positive integers. Applying a special algorithm we find a lower bound of g(x) also for xn with lower asymptotic density d = 0. This extends the lower bound of g(x) for xn with d > 0 found in the previous part III. We also prove that for an arbitrary real sequence yn ∈ [0, 1] there exists an increasing sequence xn of positive integers such that any distribution function of yn is also a distribution function of Xn .

Let xn , n = 1, 2, . . . , be an increasing sequence of positive integers (by “increasing” we mean strictly increasing). The double sequence xm /xn , m, n = 1, 2, . . . ˇ at [Sa]. He studied its is called the ratio sequence of xn . It was introduced by T. Sal´ everywhere density. For further study of ratio sequences, O. Strauch and J.T. T´oth [ST] introduced a sequence Xn of blocks x x xn 1 2 Xn = , n = 1, 2, . . . , , ,..., xn xn xn and they studied the set G(Xn ) of its distribution functions. The motivation is that the existence of strictly increasing g(x) ∈ G(Xn ) implies everywhere density ˇ at [Sa]. Further motivation is that the block of xm /xn , the basic problem by Sal´ sequences are tools for the study of distribution functions of sequences, see [SN, p. 12, 1.9]. Some examples of G(Xn ) can be found in [ST], [FMT], [GS] and unsolved problems concerning G(Xn ) in [SN]. In the previous part III of this series, we found optimal boundaries for g(x) ∈ G(Xn ) for xn with positive lower asymptotic density d > 0. We also constructed xn having some piecewise linear g(x). General characterization of G(Xn ) is an open problem. In this part IV we study the case d = 0, and also we find some structural properties
