Let $G = C_{n_1} \oplus \cdots \oplus C_{n_r}$ with $1 < n_1 | \cdots | n_r$ be a finite abelian group. The Davenport constant $\mathsf D(G)$ is the smallest integer $t$ such that every sequence $S$ over $G$ of length $|S|\ge t$ has a…

Using combinatorial techniques, we prove that the weighted sum of the inverse number of automorphisms of all finite abelian $p$-groups $\sum_G |G|^{-u} |\text{Aut}(G)|^{-1}$ is equal to $\prod_{j=u+1}^\infty\left(1-1/p^j\right)^{-1}$, where…

Let G be an additive, finite abelian group. The critical number $\mathsf{cr}(G)$ of $G$ is the smallest positive integer $\ell$ such that for every subset $S \subset G \setminus \{0\}$ with $|S| \ge \ell$ the following holds: Every element…

A generalization of the Davenport constant is investigated. For a finite abelian group $G$ and a positive integer $k$, let $D_k(G)$ denote the smallest $\ell$ such that each sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has $k$ disjoint…

The Erd\H{o}s-Burgess constant of a semigroup $S$ is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that any sequence over $S$ of length $k$ contains a nonempty subsequence whose elements multiply to an idempotent element of $S$. In the case where…

For a finite abelian group $G$ and a positive integer $k$, let $s_{k}(G)$ denote the smallest integer $\ell\in\mathbb{N}$ such that any sequence $S$ of elements of $G$ of length $|S|\geq\ell$ has a zero-sum subsequence with length $k$. The…

For a finite abelian group $G$, the Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant $\mathfrak{s}(G)$ is the smallest $s$ such that every sequence of $s$ (not necessarily distinct) elements of $G$ has a zero-sum subsequence of length…

Let $G$ be an additive finite abelian group with exponent $\exp(G)=m$. For any positive integer $k$, the $k$-th generalized Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant $\mathsf s_{km}(G)$ is defined as the smallest positive integer $t$ such that every…

In this note we compute values of global linear Harbourne constants over arbitrary fields for up to ten lines. These invariants have appeared recently in the discussions around the Bounded Negativity Conjecture. They seem to be of…

An $integral$ of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose derived group (commutator subgroup) is isomorphic to $G$. This paper discusses integrals of groups, and in particular questions about which groups have integrals and how big or small those…

Let $G$ be an additive abelian group. A sequence $S=g_1\cdot\ldots\cdot g_{\ell}$ of terms from $G$ is a plus-minus weighted zero-sum sequence if there are $\varepsilon_1,\ldots,\varepsilon_{\ell}\in\{-1,1\}$ such that $\varepsilon_1…

Let $A$ be a nonempty finite set of $k$ integers. Given a subset $B$ of $A$, the sum of all elements of $B$, denoted by $s(B)$, is called the subset sum of $B$. For a nonnegative integer $\alpha$ ($\leq k$), let \[\Sigma_{\alpha}…

Let $A\subseteq \mathbb Z_n$ be a subset. A sequence $S=(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$ in $\mathbb Z_n$ is said to be an $A$-weighted zero-sum sequence if there exist $a_1,\ldots,a_k\in A$ such that $a_1x_1+\cdots+a_kx_k=0$. By a square, we shall mean a…

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…

It is shown that $2\beta_1(\G)\leq h(\G)$ for any countable group $\G$, where $\beta_1(\G)$ is the first $\ell^2$-Betti number and $h(\G)$ the uniform isoperimetric constant. In particular, a countable group with non-vanishing first…

Let $G = (G,+)$ be a compact connected abelian group, and let $\mu_G$ denote its probability Haar measure. A theorem of Kneser (generalising previous results of Macbeath and Raikov) establishes the bound $$ \mu_G(A + B) \geq \min(…

For a given weighted mean $\mathscr{M}$ defined on a subinterval of $\mathbb{R}_+$ and a sequence of weights $\lambda=(\lambda_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ we define a Hardy constant $\mathscr H(\lambda)$ as the smallest extended real number such that…

Let $G$ be an additive finite abelian group and let $k\in [\exp(G),\mathsf{D}(G)-1]$ be a positive integer. Denote by $\mathsf{s}_{\leq k}(G)$ the smallest positive integer $l\in \mathbb{N}\cup \{+\infty\}$ such that each sequence of length…

Let $A$ be a nonempty subset of finite abelian group $G$ of order $n$. For an integer $h \geq 2$, the restricted $h$-fold sumset $h^\wedge A$ is the set of all sums of $h$ distinct elements of $A$. It is known that if $G$ is a group of…

Similarly to the linear Harbourne constant recently defined, we study the elliptic $H$-constants of $\mathbb{P}^{2}$ and Abelian surfaces. We exhibit configurations of smooth plane cubic curves whose Harbourne index is arbitrarily close to…
