Inverse zero-sum problems II (2008, methodology): “We recall some standard notation and terminology (we follow [10] and”
Semigroup-theoretical characterizations of arithmetical invariants with applications to numerical monoids and Krull monoids (2010, background): “which is a classical constant in Combinatorial Number Theory (see [18, 21]).”
Local tameness of v-noetherian monoids (2008, background): “Then D(G) d (G)+1, and equality holds (among others) for p-groups and if r(G) 2 (see [ 11, Section 3 ] or [15, Chapter 5]).”
On the arithmetic of tame monoids with applications to Krull monoids and Mori domains (2010, background): “We define the Davenport constant of G0 by D(G0) = sup { |U| ∣∣ U ∈ A(G0)} ∈ N0 ∪ {∞}, which is a central invariant in zero-sum theory (see [15,18] for its relevance in factorization theory).”
Davenport constant with weights and some related questions. (2006, background): “Here we shall be concerned with certain generalizations of two important combinatorial invariants related to zero-sum problems (for detailed accounts one may see [10], [3], [13], [9]) in finite abelian groups.”
On products of k atoms (2009, background): “which is a central invariant in zero-sum theory (see [12]).”
