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...

Is it possible to label the edges of Kₙ with distinct integer weights so that every Hamilton cycle has the same total weight? We give a local condition characterizing the labellings that witness this question's perhaps surprising affirmative answer. More generally, we address the question that arises when "Hamilton cycle" is replaced by "k-factor" for nonnegative integers k. Such edge-labellings are in correspondence with certain vertex-labellings, and the link allows us to determine (up to a constant...
