A sumset version of a conjecture of Pilz

Published 23 Sep 2024 in math.CO and math.NT | (2409.15075v1)

Abstract: Pilz's conjecture states that for any finite set A=a1,a2,…,akA={a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k} of positive integers and positive integer nn in the union of the sets a1,2a1,…,na1,…,ak,2ak,…,nak{a_1,2a_1,\dots,na_1},\dots, {a_k,2a_k,\dots,na_k} (considered as a multiset) at least nn values appear an odd number of times. In this short note we consider a variant of this problem. Namely, we show that in the sumset a1,2a1,…,na1+⋯+ak,2ak,…,nak{a_1,2a_1,\dots,na_1}+\dots+{a_k,2a_k,\dots,na_k} (considered as a multiset) at least nn values appear an odd number of times.
