On zero-sum sequences in .
Let K be an algebraic number field with non-trivial class group G and be its ring of integers. For k ∈ ℕ and some real x ≥ 1, let denote the number of non-zero principal ideals with norm bounded by x such that a has at most k distinct factorizations into irreducible elements. It is well known that behaves for x → ∞ asymptotically like . We prove, among other results, that for all integers n₁,n₂ with 1 < n₁|n₂.

For k ∈ ℕ and some real x ≥ 1, let denote the number of non-zero principal ideals with norm bounded by x such that a has at most k distinct factorizations into irreducible elements. It is well known that behaves, for x → ∞, asymptotically like . In this article, it is proved that for every prime p, , and it is also proved that if and m is large enough. In particular, it is shown that for...
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...
Let G be an additive finite abelian group. For every positive integer ℓ, let be the smallest positive integer t such that each sequence S over G of length |S| ≥ t has a nonempty zero-sum subsequence of length not equal to ℓ. In this paper, we determine for certain finite groups, including cyclic groups, the groups and elementary abelian 2-groups. Following Girard, we define disc(G) as the smallest positive integer t such that every sequence S over G with |S| ≥ t has nonempty zero-sum subsequences...
