Keywords:
factorization of finite abelian groups; periodic subset; cyclic subset; Hajós's theorem
Summary:
It is proved that if a finite abelian group is factored into a direct product of lacunary cyclic subsets, then at least one of the factors must be periodic. This result generalizes Hajós's factorization theorem.
