Abstract:Let G be a finite group and let T be a non-empty subset of G. For any positive integer k, let Tk={t1…tk∣t1,…,tk∈T}. The set T is called exhaustive if Tn=G for some positive integer n where the smallest positive integer n, if it exists, such that Tn=G is called the exhaustion number of T and is denoted by e(T). If Tk≠G for any positive integer k, then T
is a non-exhaustive subset and we write e(T)=∞. In this paper, we investigate the exhaustion numbers of subsets of the generalized quaternion group Q2n=⟨x, y∣x… Show more
