LetGbe a finite group,(ZG) the group of units of the integral group ring ZGand1(ZG) the subgroup of units of augmentation 1. In this paper, we are primarily concerned with the problem of describing constructively(ZG) for particular groupsG.This has been done for a small number of groups (see [11] for an excellent survey), and most recently Jespers and Leal [3] described(ZG) for several 2-groups. While the situation is clear for all groups of order less than 16, not all groups of order 16 were discussed in their paper. Our main aim is to complete the description of(ZG) for all groups of order 16. Since the structure of the unit group of abelian groups is very well known (see for example [10]), we are only interested in the non-abelian case.

The present paper has been inspired by a theorem of Swan(5). The theorem can be described as follows. Let G be a finite group and let Γ be its integral group ring. We shall denote by Z an infinite cyclic additive group considered as a left Γ-module by defining gm = m for all g in G and m in Z. By a Tate resolution of Z is meant an exact sequencewhere Xn is a projective module for − ∞ < n < + ∞, and.

Let G be a group, ZG its integral group ring and U(ZG) the group of units of ZG. The elements ±g∈U(ZG), g∈G, are called the trivial units of ZG. In this note we will proveLet G be a finite group. If ZG contains a non-trivial unit of finite order then it contains infinitely many non-trivial units of finite order.In [1] S. D. Berman has shown that if G is finite then every unit of finite order in ZG is trivial if and only if G is abelian or G is the direct product of a quaternion group of order 8 and an elementary abelian 2-group.

Let G be a finite group and let g be the augmentation ideal of the integral group ring G. Following Gruenberg(5) we let (g̱) denote the category whose objects are short exact sequences of zG-modules of the form and in which the morphisms are commutative diagramsIn this paper we describe the projective objects in this category. These are the objects which satisfy the usual categorical definition of projectivity, but they may also be characterized as the short exact sequencesin which P is a projective module.

AbstractLet G be a finite group and [G] its integral group ring. We prove that the twisted nil groups N([G]) vanish for all i ≤ 1 for G a finite group of square-free order.

Describing the group of units U(ZG) of the integral group ring ZG, for a finite group G, is a classical and open problem. In this paper, it is shown that U(Z[G × Cp]) = M ⋊ U(ZG), a semi-direct product where M is a certain subgroup of U(Z[ζ]G) and p prime. For p = 2, this structure theorem is applied to give precise descriptions of U(ZG) for a non-abelian group G of order 32, G = C10, and G = C8 × C2.

We study the Zassenhaus conjecture for the normalized unit group of the integral group ring of the Mathieu sporadic group M24. As a consequence, for this group we give a positive answer to the question by Kimmerle about prime graphs.
