“EGZ constant and its (many!) generalizations”

In this talk, I will present some special types of Zero-Sum Problems in Additive Number Theory, which arose from a classical theorem due to Erdos, Ginzburg and Ziv (1961). I will show this the- orem and explain its generalizations: the higher dimensional zero-sum problems (including Kemnitz’s Conjecture, now called Reiher-Di Fiore Theorem) and the weighted zero-sum problems.
