Let [Formula: see text] be a group and let [Formula: see text] be a field of characteristic [Formula: see text]. Lie nilpotent group algebras of strong Lie nilpotency index at most 13 have been classified by many authors. In this paper, our aim is to classify the group algebras [Formula: see text] which are strongly Lie nilpotent of index 14.

Let [Formula: see text] be an arbitrary group and let [Formula: see text] be a field of characteristic [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give some improvements of the upper bound of the lower Lie nilpotency index [Formula: see text] of the group algebra [Formula: see text]. We also give improved bounds for [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the number of independent generators of the finite abelian group [Formula: see text]. Furthermore, we give a description of the Lie nilpotent group algebra [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text]. We also show that for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the upper Lie nilpotency index of [Formula: see text].

Let K be a field of odd characteristic p, and let G be the direct product of a finite p-group P ≠ 1 and a Hamiltonian 2-group. We show that the set of symmetric elements (KG)* of the group algebra KG with respect to the involution of KG which inverts all elements of G, satisfies all Lie commutator identities of degree t(P) or more, where t(P) denotes the nilpotency index of the augmentation ideal of the group algebra KP. In addition, if P is powerful, then (KG)* satisfies no Lie commutator identity of degree less than t(P). Applying this result we get that (KG)* is Lie nilpotent and Lie solvable, and its Lie nilpotency index and Lie derived length are not greater than t(P) and ⌈ log 2 t(P)⌉, respectively, and these bounds are attained whenever P is a powerful group. The corresponding result on the set of symmetric units of KG is also obtained.

Let K be a field of characteristic p > 0 and let G be an arbitrary group. In this paper, we classify group algebras KG which are strongly Lie nilpotent of index at most 8. We also show that for k ≤ 6, KG is strongly Lie nilpotent of index k if and only if it is Lie nilpotent of index k.

Let KG be the modular group algebra of a group G over a field K of characteristic p > 0. The classification of group algebras KG with upper Lie nilpotency index tL(KG) greater than or equal to |G′| – 13p + 14 have already been done. In this paper, our aim is to classify the group algebras KG for which tL(KG) = |G′| – 14p + 15.

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)'.

Let K be a field of positive characteristic p and KG the group algebra of a group G. It is known that if KG is Lie nilpotent, then its upper (or lower) Lie nilpotency index is at most |G′| + 1, where |G′| is the order of the commutator subgroup. The class of groups G for which these indices are maximal or almost maximal has already been determined. Here we determine G for which upper (or lower) Lie nilpotency index is the next highest possible.

If G is a polycyclic group and k an absolute field then every irreducible kG-module is finite dimensional [10], while if k is nonabsolute every irreducible module is finite dimensional if and only if G is abelian-by-finite [3]. However something more can be said about the infinite dimensional irreducible modules. For example P. Hall showed that if G is a finitely generated nilpotent group and V an irreducible kG-module, then the image of kZ in EndkGV is algebraic over k [3]. Here Z = Z(G) denotes the centre of G. It follows that the restriction Vz of V to Z is generated by finite dimensional kZ-modules. In this paper we prove a generalization of this result to polycyclic group algebras.We introduce some terminology.
