Let $G$ be a finite group. The small Davenport constant $\mathsf d(G)$ of $G$ is the maximal integer $\ell$ such that there is a sequence of length $\ell$ over $G$ which has no nonempty product-one subsequence. In 2007, Bass conjectured…

For the cyclic group $G=\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ and any non-empty $A\in\mathbb{Z}$. We define the Davenport constant of $G$ with weight $A$, denoted by $D_A(n)$, to be the least natural number $k$ such that for any sequence $(x_1, ...,…

Let $G$ be a finite group written multiplicatively. By a sequence over $G$, we mean a finite sequence of terms from $G$ which is unordered, repetition of terms allowed, and we say that it is a product-one sequence if its terms can be…

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…

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 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 $G = C_{n_1} \oplus \cdots \oplus C_{n_r}$ 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…

We determine Davenport's constant for all groups of the form $\Z\_3\oplus \Z\_3\oplus\Z\_{3d}$.

For a finite abelian group $G$ and a positive integer $k$, let $\mathsf{D}_k(G)$ denote the smallest integer $\ell$ such that each sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has $k$ disjoint nontrivial zero-sum subsequences. It is known…

We determine the exact value of the $\eta$-constant and the multiwise Davenport constants for finite abelian groups of rank three having the form $G \simeq C_2 \oplus C_{n_2} \oplus C_{n_3}$ with $2 \mid n_2 \mid n_3$. Moreover, we…

Let $G$ be an abelian group, and let $\mathcal F (G)$ be the free commutative monoid with basis $G$. For $\Omega \subset \mathcal F (G)$, define the universal zero-sum invariant ${\mathsf d}_{\Omega}(G)$ to be the smallest integer $\ell$…

$G$ be an additive finite abelian group. The Davenport constant $\mathsf D(G)$ is the smallest integer $t$ such that every sequence (multiset) $S$ over $G$ of length $|S|\ge t$ has a non-empty zero-sum subsequence. Recently, B. Girard…

A subset $\{g_1, \ldots , g_d\}$ of a finite group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $\{g_1^{x_1}, \ldots , g_d^{x_d}\}$ generates $G$ for every choice of $x_i \in G$. The Chebotarev invariant $C(G)$ of $G$ is the expected value of the random…

A set of quasi-uniform random variables $X_1,...,X_n$ may be generated from a finite group $G$ and $n$ of its subgroups, with the corresponding entropic vector depending on the subgroup structure of $G$. It is known that the set of entropic…

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 obtain a classification of the finite two-generated cyclic-by-abelian groups of prime-power order. For that we associate to each such group $G$ a list $\inv(G)$ of numerical group invariants which determines the isomorphism type of $G$.…

Let $G$ be a finite (not necessarily abelian) group and let $p=p(G)$ be the smallest prime number dividing $|G|$. We prove that $d(G)\leq \frac{|G|}{p}+9p^2-10p$, where $d(G)$ denotes the small Davenport constant of $G$ which is defined as…

Given an additively written abelian group $G$ and a set $X\subseteq G$, we let $\mathsf{D}(X)$ denote the Davenport constant of $X$, namely the largest non-negative integer $n$ for which there exists a sequence $x_1, \dots, x_n$ of elements…

Let $G$ be a finite group, written multiplicatively. The Davenport constant of $G$ is the smallest positive integer $D(G)$ such that every sequence of $G$ with $D(G)$ elements has a non-empty subsequence with product $1$. Let $D_{2n}$ be…

The existence of invariant transversals for a normal subgroup $H$ in a group $G$ is investigated. This yields counterexamples to a conjecture in case $H$ is abelian and $G$ is finite.
