Costa–Mella–Pasotti–Pellegrini conjecture on zero-sum simple orderings
Let be an abelian group, and let be a finite subset of such that no -subset is contained in and
An ordering of the elements of is simple when its partial sums are all distinct and non-zero. Costa–Mella–Pasotti–Pellegrini conjecture. The set admits a simple ordering. This conjecture concerns zero-sum subsets in abelian groups and is motivated by the study of Heffter arrays. The source gives no resolution of the general case.
