Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem and Noether number for $C_m\ltimes_{\varphi} C_{mn}$
Abstract
Let be a multiplicative finite group and a sequence over . We call a product-one sequence if holds for some permutation of . The small Davenport constant is the maximal length of a product-one free sequence over . For a subset , let denote the smallest such that every sequence over of length has a product-one subsequence of length . Denote . Some classical product-one (zero-sum) invariants including (when is abelian), , , and () have received a lot of studies. The Noether number which is closely related to zero-sum theory is defined to be the maximal degree bound for the generators of the algebra of polynomial invariants. Let , in this paper, we prove that and . We also prove that and provide the upper bounds of , . Moreover, if is a non-cyclic nilpotent group and is the smallest prime divisor of , we prove that except if and is a dicyclic group, in which case .
