群的加权Davenport常数及相关极值问题

The Weighted Davenport Constant of a group and a related extremal problem

Niranjan Balachandran, Eshita Mazumdar

摘要:

对于一个有限阿贝尔群$G$和一个非空子集$A\subset [1,\exp(G)-1]$,$G$相对于集合$A$的加权达文波特常数,记为$D_A(G)$,是最小正整数$k$,满足以下条件:给定一个任意的$G$序列$(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$,存在一个非空子序列$(x_{i_1},\ldots,x_{i_t})$和$a_{j}\in A$,使得$\sum_{j=1}^t a_jx_{i_j}=0$。在本文中,我们提出并研究了一个自然的新极值问题,产生于$D_A(G)$的研究:对于一个整数$k\ge 2$,确定$\fD_G(k):=\min\{|A|: D_A(G)\le k\}$(如果提出的问题是有意义的)。事实证明,对于$k$“不太小”,这是一个适定性问题,最有趣的情况之一发生在$G=\Z_p$,循环群的素数阶,我们获得附近的最佳界限为所有$k$(足够大的素数$p$),和渐近紧(常数)界为$k=2,4$。

英文摘要:

For a finite abelian group $G$ written additively, and a non-empty subset $A\subset [1,\exp(G)-1]$ the weighted Davenport Constant of $G$ with respect to the set $A$, denoted $D_A(G)$, is the least positive integer $k$ for which the following holds: Given an arbitrary $G$-sequence $(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$, there exists a non-empty subsequence $(x_{i_1},\ldots,x_{i_t})$ along with $a_{j}\in A$ such that $\sum_{j=1}^t a_jx_{i_j}=0$. In this paper, we pose and study a natural new extremal problem that arises from the study of $D_A(G)$: For an integer $k\ge 2$, determine $\fD_G(k):=\min\{|A|: D_A(G)\le k\}$ (if the problem posed makes sense). It turns out that for $k$ `not-too-small', this is a well-posed problem and one of the most interesting cases occurs for $G=\Z_p$, the cyclic group of prime order, for which we obtain near optimal bounds for all $k$ (for sufficiently large primes $p$), and asymptotically tight (up to constants) bounds for $k=2,4$.
