โœฆ Synopsis


A subgroup cover of the integer lattice in two or more dimensions is a presentation of that lattice as a finite union of proper subgroups, no two of the same index. In an earlier paper, Cochrane and Myerson constructed subgroup covers in two dimensions and asked several questions about other methods of construction and about higher dimensions. We answer those questions.

We study the problem of covering or packing a finite group with subgroups of a specified order and obtain bounds on the size of such covers and packings. Our main results provide characterizations of the elementary abelian groups by the existence of large packings or small covers, respectively. Henc
