Let G be an additive finite abelian group, and let S be a sequence over G. We say that S is regular if for every proper subgroup H ⊆ G, S contains at most |H|-1 terms from H. Let ₀(G) be the smallest integer t such that every regular sequence S over G of length |S| ≥ t forms an additive basis of G, i.e., every element of G can be expressed as the sum over a nonempty subsequence of S. The constant ₀(G) has been determined previously only for the elementary abelian groups. In this paper, we determine...
Introduction. An old conjecture of P. Erdős repeated many times with a prize offer states that the counting function A(n) of a -sequence A satisfies
.
The conjecture was proved for r=2 by P. Erdős himself (see [5]) and in the cases r=4 and r=6 by J. C. M. Nash in [4] and by Xing-De Jia in [2] respectively. A very interesting proof of the conjecture in the case of all even r=2k by Xing-De Jia is to appear in the Journal of Number Theory [3].
Here we present a different, very short proof of Erdős’...
