Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem is a famous theorem in additive number theory, which states any sequence of $2n-1$ integers contains a subsequence of $n$ elements, with their sum being a multiple of $n$. In this article, we provide an…
The Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem states that for any sequence of $2n-1$ integers, there exists a subsequence of $n$ elements whose sum is divisible by $n$. In this article, we provide a simple, practical $O(n\log\log n)$ algorithm and a…
Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem says that if there are 2n-1 number is given, then there are n numbers such that their sum is divided by n. We will connect this theorem with the Ramsey theoretic large sets and will prove an infinitary version…
The modular subset sum problem consists of deciding, given a modulus $m$, a multiset $S$ of $n$ integers in $0..m-1$, and a target integer $t$, whether there exists a subset of $S$ with elements summing to $t \mod m $, and to report such a…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group, and $r$ be a multiple of its exponent. The generalized Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant $s_r(G)$ is the smallest integer $s$ such that every sequence of length $s$ over $G$ has a zero-sum subsequence of…
The Erd\H{o}s--Ginzburg--Ziv Problem is a classical extremal problem in discrete geometry. Given $m$ and $n$, the problem asks about the smallest number $s$ such that among any $s$ points in the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^n$ one can find…
Let $G$ be a multiplicatively written finite group of order $n$. The Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv Theorem constant of the group $G$, denoted $\mathsf E(G)$, is defined as the smallest positive integer $\ell$ with the following property: for any…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group written additively, and let $r$ be a multiple of its exponent. The modified Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant $\mathsf{s}_r'(G)$ is the smallest integer $s$ such that every zero-sum sequence of length $s$…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group. The Erd{\H o}s--Ginzburg--Ziv constant $\mathsf s (G)$ of $G$ is defined as the smallest integer $l \in \mathbb N$ such that every sequence \ $S$ \ over $G$ of length $|S| \ge l$ \ has a zero-sum…
Let us denote the nth difference between consecutive primes by d_n. The Prime Number Theorem clearly implies that d_n is logn on average. Paul Erd\H{o}s conjectured about 60 years ago that the sequence d_n/logn is everywhere dense on the…
Let $f(N)$ denote the least integer $k$ such that, if $G$ is an abelian group of order $N$ and $A \subseteq G$ is a uniformly random $k$-element subset, then with probability at least $\tfrac12$ the subset-sum set $\{ \sum_{x \in S} x : S…
Lempel-Ziv (LZ77) factorization is a fundamental problem in string processing: Greedily partition a given string $T$ from left to right into blocks (called phrases) so that each phrase is either the leftmost occurrence of a letter or the…
Let $G$ be a multiplicatively written finite group. We denote by $\mathsf E(G)$ the smallest integer $t$ such that every sequence of $t$ elements in $G$ contains a product-one subsequence of length $|G|$. In 1961, Erd\H{o}s, Ginzburg and…
Countless variants of the Lempel-Ziv compression are widely used in many real-life applications. This paper is concerned with a natural modification of the classical pattern matching problem inspired by the popularity of such compression…
Computing the LZ factorization (or LZ77 parsing) of a string is a computational bottleneck in many diverse applications, including data compression, text indexing, and pattern discovery. We describe new linear time LZ factorization…
For any linear inequality in three variables $\mathcal{L}$, we determine (if it exist) the smallest integer $R(\mathcal{L}, \mathbb{Z}/3\mathbb{Z})$ such that: for every mapping $\chi :[1,n] \to \{0,1,2\}$, with $n\geq R(\mathcal{L},…
Let $\mathcal S$ be a multiset of integers. We say $\mathcal S$ is a $\textit{zero-sum sequence}$ if the sum of its elements is 0. We study zero-sum sequences whose elements lie in the interval $[-k,k]$ such that no subsequence of length…
Ellenberg and Gijswijt gave recently a new exponential upper bound for the size of three-term arithmetic progression free sets in $({\mathbb Z_p})^n$, where $p$ is a prime. Petrov summarized their method and generalized their result to…
In 1961, P. Erd\H{o}s, A. Ginzburg, and A. Ziv proved a remarkable theorem stating that each set of $2n-1$ integers contains a subset of size $n$, the sum of whose elements is divisible by $n$. We will prove a similar result for pairs of…
