Abstract

Let GG be a finite abelian group written additively, and let rr be a multiple of its exponent. The modified Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant sr(G)\mathsf{s}_r'(G) is the smallest integer ss such that every zero-sum sequence of length ss over GG has a zero-sum subsequence of length rr. We find exact values of s2k(Z2d)\mathsf{s}_{2k}'(\mathbb{Z}_2^d) for d2k+1d \leq 2k+1.
