A note on a class of factorized p -groups

Enrico Jabara (2005)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In this note we study finite p -groups G = A B admitting a factorization by an Abelian subgroup A and a subgroup B . As a consequence of our results we prove that if B contains an Abelian subgroup of index p n - 1 then G has derived length at most 2 n .

Subsequence sums of zero-sum free sequences over finite abelian groups

Yongke Qu, Xingwu Xia, Lin Xue, Qinghai Zhong (2015)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let G be a finite abelian group of rank r and let X be a zero-sum free sequence over G whose support supp(X) generates G. In 2009, Pixton proved that | Σ ( X ) | ≥ 2 r - 1 ( | X | - r + 2 ) - 1 for r ≤ 3. We show that this result also holds for abelian groups G of rank 4 if the smallest prime p dividing |G| satisfies p ≥ 13.

Sum-dominant sets and restricted-sum-dominant sets in finite abelian groups

David B. Penman, Matthew D. Wells (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We call a subset A of an abelian group G sum-dominant when |A+A| > |A-A|. If |A⨣A| > |A-A|, where A⨣A comprises the sums of distinct elements of A, we say A is restricted-sum-dominant. In this paper we classify the finite abelian groups according to whether or not they contain sum-dominant sets (respectively restricted-sum-dominant sets). We also consider how much larger the sumset can be than the difference set in this context. Finally, generalising work of Zhao, we provide asymptotic...
