Title Of Talk: Some Zero-sum Problems in Combinatorial Number Theory
Abstract: We consider a rather recently established area in Combinatorial Number Theory referred to as `Zero-sum Combinatorics'. Originating from a beautiful theorem of Erd\Hos, Ginzberg and Ziv about forty years ago, it has found various ramifications and generalisations, with several interesting results and many unanswered questions. After giving an introduction to these questions and mentioning some early results, we report some recent results and generalizations in some new directions.
