| Popis: | Suppose $G$ is a finite abelian group and $S=g_{1}\cdots g_{l}$ is a sequence of elements in $G$. For any element $g$ of $G$ and $A\subseteq\mathbb{Z}\backslash\left\{ 0\right\} $, let $N_{A,g}(S)$ denote the number of subsequences $T=\prod_{i\in I}g_{i}$ of $S$ such that $\sum_{i\in I}a_{i}g_{i}=g$ , where $I\subseteq\left\{ 1,\ldots,l\right\}$ and $a_{i}\in A$. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the lower bound for $N_{A,0}(S)$. In particular, we prove that $N_{A,0}(S)\geq2^{|S|-D_{A}(G)+1}$, where $D_{A}(G)$ is the smallest positive integer $l$ such that every sequence over $G$ of length at least $l$ has a nonempty $A$-zero-sum subsequence. We also characterize the structures of the extremal sequences for which the equality holds for some groups.
