Product-one subsequence conjecture for the ordered Davenport constant
Product-one subsequence conjecture for the ordered Davenport constant
For a finite group , let be the least positive integer such that every sequence of that length over has a nonempty product-one subsequence, and let be the least integer such that every sequence of length over has a product-one ordered subsequence of length . The ordered Davenport constant conjecture. One has
For finite abelian groups this equality is known, while the source establishes the lower bound for finite non-abelian groups. The conjecture asks whether equality holds for every finite group.
