Let [Formula: see text] be a group, [Formula: see text] a field of characteristic [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] the unit group of the group algebra [Formula: see text]. In this paper, among other results, we show that if either (1) [Formula: see text] satisfies a non-matrix polynomial identity, or (2) [Formula: see text] is locally finite, [Formula: see text] is infinite and [Formula: see text] is an Engel-by-finite group, then the [Formula: see text]-elements of [Formula: see text] form a (normal) subgroup [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is abelian (here, of course, [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text]).

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $p\geq 0$ and $G$ any group. In this article, the Engel property of the group of units of the group algebra $FG$ is investigated. We show that if $G$ is locally finite, then ${\mathcal{U}}(FG)$ is an Engel group if and only if $G$ is locally nilpotent and $G^{\prime }$ is a $p$-group. Suppose that the set of nilpotent elements of $FG$ is finite. It is also shown that if $G$ is torsion, then ${\mathcal{U}}(FG)$ is an Engel group if and only if $G^{\prime }$ is a finite $p$-group and $FG$ is Lie Engel, if and only if ${\mathcal{U}}(FG)$ is locally nilpotent. If $G$ is nontorsion but $FG$ is semiprime, we show that the Engel property of ${\mathcal{U}}(FG)$ implies that the set of torsion elements of $G$ forms an abelian normal subgroup of $G$.

AbstractSuppose KG is a prime nonsingular group algebra with uniform right ideals. We show that G has no nontrivial locally finite normal subgroups. If G is soluble or residually finite, or if K has zero characteristic and G is linear, then the maximal right quotient ring of KG is simple Artinian.

Let G be a polycyclic-by-finite group and let K[G] denote its group algebra over the field K. In this paper we discuss localization in K[G] and in particular we prove that every faithful completely prime ideal is localizable. Furthermore, using a sequence of localizations, we show that, for G polyinfinite cyclic, the classical right quotient ring (K[G]) is in fact a universal field of fractions for K[G]. Finally we offer an example of a domain K[G] which does not have a universal field of fractions.

SynopsisLet J(FG) be the Jacobson radical of the group algebra FG of a finite groupG with a Sylow 3-subgroup which is extra-special of order 27 of exponent 3 over a field F of characteristic 3, and let t(G) be the least positive integer t with J(FG)t = 0. In this paper, we prove that t(G) = 9 if G has a normal subgroup H such that (|G:H|, 3) = 1 and if H is either 3-solvable, SL(3,3) or the Tits simple group 2F4(2)'.

When considering the unit group of [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text] the ring of integers of an abelian number field [Formula: see text] and a finite group [Formula: see text]) certain components in the Wedderburn decomposition of [Formula: see text] cause problems for known generic constructions of units; these components are called exceptional. Exceptional components are divided into two types: type 1 is division rings, type 2 is [Formula: see text]-matrix rings. For exceptional components of type 1 we provide infinite classes of division rings by describing the seven cases of minimal groups (with respect to quotients) having those division rings in their Wedderburn decomposition over [Formula: see text]. We also classify the exceptional components of type 2 appearing in group algebras of a finite group over number fields [Formula: see text] by describing all 58 finite groups [Formula: see text] having a faithful exceptional Wedderburn component of this type in [Formula: see text].

We give a description of the primitive central idempotents of the rational group algebra ℚG of a finite group G. Such a description is already investigated by Jespers, Olteanu and del Río, but some unknown scalars are involved. Our description also gives answers to their questions.

It is well known that when the characteristic p(≠ 0) of a field divides the order of a finite group, the group algebra possesses a non-trivial radical and that, if p does not divide the order of the group, the group algebra is semi-simple. A group algebra has a centre, a basis for which consists of the class-sums. The radical may be contained in this centre; we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for this to happen.
