Upper Bounds for the Davenport Constant
Balasubramanian, R., Gautami Bhowmik · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · 2006
We prove that for all but a certain number of abelian groups of order n the Davenport constant is at most n k + k − 1 for positive integers k ≤ 7. For groups of rank three we improve on the existing bound involving the Alon-Dubiner constant.
