Review text

In his paper [Adv. Appl. Math. 31, No. 1, 193--198 (2003; Zbl 1036.11005)] \textit{B. A. Datskovsky} showed that the number of monochromatic Schur triples \((x,y,z)\) with \(xy=z\) in a 2-colouring of \(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}\) depends only on the cardinalities of the colour classes and not on the distribution of the colours. In the current paper a generalization to other finite groups \(G\) is given and the result then is applicated to Schur triples in \(G\), arithmetic progressions in \(G\), and Pythagorean triples in \(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}\). There are also some results for 3-coloured groups.
