Review text

Summary: Let \(G\) be a finite abelian group, and let \(S\) be a sequence of elements in \(G\). Let \(f(S)\) denote the number of elements in \(G\) which can be expressed as the sum over a nonempty subsequence of \(S\). In this paper, we slightly improve some results of \textit{A. Pixton} [J. Number Theory 129, No. 4, 806--817 (2009; Zbl 1234.11010)] on \(f(S)\) and we show that for every zero-sum-free sequence \(S\) over \(G\) of length \(|S| = \exp(G) + 2\) satisfies \(f(S) > 4 \exp(G) - 1\).
