Let G be a finite Abelian group of order n. A k-sequence in G is said to be barycentric if it contains an element which is the “average” of its terms. The kbarycentric Olson constant BO(k, G) is introduced as the minimal positive integer t such that any t-set in G contains a k-barycentric set. Conditions for the existence of BO(k, G) are established and some values or bounds are given. Moreover...

We prove that for a prime number p greater than 6000, the Olson's constant for the group Zp ⊕ Zp is given by Ol(Zp ⊕ Zp) = p − 1 + Ol(Zp).
