Abstract
For an abelian group and an integer , the modified Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant is the smallest integer such that any zero-sum sequence of length at least with elements in contains a zero-sum subsequence (not necessarily consecutive) of length . We compute bounds for for and . We also compute bounds for where the subsequence can be any length in . Lastly, we investigate the Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant for and subsequences of length .
