The Harborth constant of a finite abelian group is the smallest integer $\ell$ such that each subset of $G$ of cardinality $\ell$ has a subset of cardinality equal to the exponent of the group whose elements sum to the neutral element of…

Let $G$ be a finite additive abelian group. For given $k$ a positive integer, the $k$-Harborth constant $g^k(G)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $t$ such that given a set $S$ of elements of $G$ with size $t$ there exists a…

The Harborth constant of a finite group $G$ is the smallest integer $k\geq \exp(G)$ such that any subset of $G$ of size $k$ contains $\exp(G)$ distinct elements whose product is $1$. Generalizing previous work on the Harborth constants of…

The Harborth constant of a finite group $G$, denoted $\gs(G)$, is the smallest integer $k$ such that the following holds: For $A\subseteq G$ with $|A|=k$, there exists $B\subseteq A$ with $|B|=\exp(G)$ such that the elements of $B$ can be…

For a finite abelian group $(G,+, 0)$ the Harborth constant $\mathsf{g}(G)$ is the smallest integer $k$ such that each squarefree sequence over $G$ of length $k$, equivalently each subset of $G$ of cardinality at least $k$, has a…

The Davenport constant for a finite abelian group $G$ is the minimal length $\ell$ such that any sequence of $\ell$ terms from $G$ must contain a nontrivial zero-sum sequence. For the group $G=(\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z)^2$, its value is $2n-1$,…

For $(G,+)$ a finite abelian group the plus-minus weighted Davenport constant, denoted $\mathsf{D}_{\pm}(G)$, is the smallest $\ell$ such that each sequence $g_1 ... g_{\ell}$ over $G$ has a weighted zero-subsum with weights +1 and -1,…

Let $(G,+)$ be a finite abelian group. Then, $\so(G)$ and $\eta(G)$ denote the smallest integer $\ell$ such that each sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has a subsequence whose terms sum to $0$ and whose length is equal to and at…

For a finite abelian group $G$ and a positive integer $d$, let $\mathsf s_{d \mathbb N} (G)$ denote the smallest integer $\ell \in \mathbb N_0$ such that every sequence $S$ over $G$ of length $|S| \ge \ell$ has a nonempty zero-sum…

We consider two families of weighted zero-sum constants for finite abelian groups. For a finite abelian group $( G , + )$, a set of weights $W \subset \mathbb{Z}$, and an integral parameter $m$, the $m$-wise Davenport constant with weights…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of exponent $n$ and let $A$ be a non-empty subset of $[1,n-1]$. The Davenport constant of $G$ with weight $A$, denoted by $D_A(G)$, is defined to be the least positive integer $\ell$ such that any sequence…

Let $G$ be an additive abelian group. Let $A=\{a_{0}, a_{1},\ldots, a_{k-1}\}$ be a nonempty finite subset of $G$. For a positive integer $h$ satisfying $1\leq h\leq k$, we let \[h\hat{}_{\underline{+}}A:=\{\Sigma_{i=0}^{k-1}\lambda_{i}…

For a finite abelian group $(G,+)$, the constant $C(G)$ is defined to be the smallest natural number $k$ such that any sequence in $G$ having length $k$ will have a subsequence of consecutive terms whose sum is zero. For a subset…

The inverse problem associated to the Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant and the $\eta$-constant is solved for finite abelian groups of the form $C_2 \oplus C_2 \oplus C_{2n}$ where $n \ge 2$ is an integer.

Let $G$ be an additive finite abelian group. A sequence over $G$ is called a minimal zero-sum sequence if the sum of its terms is zero and no proper subsequence has this property. Davenport's constant of $G$ is the maximum of the lengths of…

Let $G$ be an additive abelian group and $h$ be a positive integer. For a nonempty finite subset $A=\{a_0, a_1,\ldots, a_{k-1}\}$ of $G$, we let \[h_{\underline{+}}A:=\{\Sigma_{i=0}^{k-1}\lambda_{i} a_{i}: (\lambda_{0}, \ldots,…

We derive some new results on the k-th barycentric Olson constants of abelian groups (mainly cyclic). This quantity, for a finite abelian (additive) group (G,+), is defined as the smallest integer l such that each subset A of G with at…
