Abstract: Let $ps{i}_1,\mathrm{...},ps{i}_k$ be periodic maps from $BbbZ$ to a field of characteristic p (where p is zero or a prime). Assume that positive integers $n_1,\mathrm{...},n_k$ not divisible by p are their periods respectively. We show that $ps{i}_1+\mathrm{...}+ps{i}_k$ is constant if $ps{i}_1(x)+\mathrm{...}+ps{i}_k(x)$ equals a constant for |S| consecutive integers x where S={r/n_s: r=0,...,n_s-1; s=1,...,k}. We also present some new results on finite systems of arithmetic sequences.
