In [H. P. Tong-Viet, Simple classical groups of Lie type are determined by their character degrees, J. Algebra 357 (2012) 61–68] the following question arose: Question. Which groups can be uniquely determined by the structure of their complex group algebras? It is proved that every quasisimple group except covers of the alternating groups is uniquely determined up to isomorphism by the structure of [Formula: see text], the complex group algebra of [Formula: see text]. One of the next natural groups to be considered are the characteristically simple groups. In this paper, as the first step in this investigation we prove that if [Formula: see text] is an odd prime number, then [Formula: see text] is uniquely determined by the structure of its complex group algebra.

In this paper, we prove that the direct product [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] are distinct numbers, is uniquely determined by its complex group algebra. Particularly, we show that the direct product [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text]’s are distinct odd prime numbers, is uniquely determined by its order and three irreducible character degrees.

For a finite group G, let cd(G) be the set of irreducible complex character degrees of G forgetting multiplicities and X1(G) be the set of all irreducible complex character degrees of G counting multiplicities. Suppose that p is a prime number. We prove that if G is a finite group such that |G| = |PGL(2,p) |, p ? cd(G) and max(cd(G)) = p+1, then G ? PGL(2,p), SL(2, p) or PSL(2,p) x A, where A is a cyclic group of order (2, p-1). Also, we show that if G is a finite group with X1(G) = X1(PGL(2,pn)), then G ? PGL(2, pn). In particular, this implies that PGL(2, pn) is uniquely determined by the structure of its complex group algebra.

Let F be a field and G an Abelian group. For every prime number q and every ordinal number α we compute only in terms of F and G the Warfield q-invariants Wα, q(VF[G]) of the group VF[G] of all normed units in the group algebra F[G] under some minimal restrictions on F and G. This expands own recent results from (Extracta Mathematicae, 2005) and (Collectanea Mathematicae, 2008).

AbstractIt is shown that every element of the complex contracted semigroup algebra of an inverse semigroup S = S0 has a Moore-Penrose inverse, with respect to the natural involution, if and only if S is locally finite. In particular, every element of a complex group algebra has such an inverse if and only if the group is locally finite.

One of the most useful theorems in classical representation theory is a result due to N. Ito, which can be stated using the classification of the finite simple groups in the following way.THEOREM (N. Ito, G. Michler). Let Irr (G) be the set of all irreducible complex characters of the finite group G and q be a prime number. Then if and only if G has a normal, abelian Sylow-q-subgroup.
