Abstract:
A subset ( S=left s_1,ldots ,s_kright ) of an Abelian group ( G ) is called an ( S_t )-set of size ( k ) if all sums of ( t ) different elements in ( S ) are distinct. Let denote the cardinality of the largest -set in . Let ( v! left( kright) ) denote the order of the smallest Abelian group for which . We develop bounds for , and we determine for by determining for Abelian groups of order up to using exhaustive backtrack search with isomorph rejection.
Keywords:
additive base, backtrack search, difference set, packing
