Abstract

We determine the exact value of the η\eta-constant and the multiwise Davenport constants for finite abelian groups of rank three having the form GC2Cn2Cn3G \simeq C_2 \oplus C_{n_2} \oplus C_{n_3} with 2n2n32 \mid n_2 \mid n_3. Moreover, we determine the Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant of these groups under the assumption that n2/2n_2/2 has Property D or n2=n3n_2 = n_3.
