Abstract Suppose G is an abelian group with a p-subgroup H and R is a commutative unitary ring of prime characteristic p with trivial nil-radical. We give a complete description up to isomorphism of the maximal divisible subgroups of 1 + I(RG;H) and (1 + I(RG;H))=H, respectively, where I(RG;H) denotes the relative augmentation ideal of the group algebra RG with respect to H. This paper terminates a series of works by the author on the topic, first of which are [Danchev, Rad. Mat. 13: 23–32, 2004] and [Danchev, Bull. Georgian Acad. Sci. 174: 238–242, 2006].

AbstractLet U(KλG) be the group of units of the infinite twisted group algebra KλG over a field K. We describe the FC-centre ΔU of U(KλG) and give a characterization of the groups G and fields K for which U(KλG) = ΔU. In the case of group algebras we obtain the Cliff-Sehgal-Zassenhaus theorem.

Let G be a group with the lower central seriesLetwhere Σ runs over all non-negative integers a1, a2,…, an such that and is the aith symmetric power of the abelian group Gi/Gi+1 whereLet I (G) be the augmentation ideal of G in , the group ring of G over . Define the additive group Qn (G) = In (G) / In+1 (G) for any n ≥ 1. Then it is well known that Q1(G) ≅ W1(G) for any group G. Losey (4,5) proved that Q2(G) ≅ W2(G) for any finitely generated group G. Furthermore recently Tahara(12) proved that Q3(G) is a certain precisely defined quotient of W3(G) for any finite group G.

We prove that if the p-reduced abelian group G is a special countable extension of its totally projective p-component of torsion Gp and R is a perfect commutative unitary ring of prime characteristic p, then the group S(G) of all normed p-units in the group algebra RG modulo Gp, that is, S(G)/Gp, is totally projective. Our result strengthens both classical results obtained by May and Hill–Ullery.

1. Introduction. Let kG denote the group algebra of a group G over a field k. In this paper we are first concerned with the zero divisor conjecture: that if G is torsion free, then kG is a domain. Recently, K. A. Brown made a remarkable breakthrough when he settled the conjecture for char k = 0 and G abelian by finite (2). In a beautiful paper written shortly afterwards, D. Farkas and R. Snider extended this result to give an affirmative answer to the conjecture for char k = 0 and G polycyclic by finite. Their methods, however, were less successful when k had prime characteristic. We use the techniques of (4) and (7) to prove the following:Theorem A. If G is a torsion free abelian by locally finite by supersoluble group and k is any field, then kG is a domain.

Let KG be the group algebra of a group G over a field K of characteristic p > 0. It is proved that the following statements are equivalent: KG is Lie nilpotent of class ≤ p, KG is strongly Lie nilpotent of class ≤ p and G′ is a central subgroup of order p. Also, if G is nilpotent and G′ is of order pn then KG is strongly Lie nilpotent of class ≤ pn and both U(KG)/ζ(U(KG)) and U(KG)′ are of exponent pn. Here U(KG) is the group of units of KG. As an application it is shown that for all n ≤ p+ 1, γn(L(KG)) = 0 if and only if γn(KG) = 0.

AbstractLet G be an abelian group. The aim of this short paper is to describe a way to identify pure subgroups H of G by looking only at how the subgroup lattice $$\mathcal {L}(H)$$ L ( H ) embeds in $$\mathcal {L}(G)$$ L ( G ) . It is worth noticing that all results are carried out in a local nilpotent context for a general definition of purity.

AbstractLet X be a countable discrete abelian group with automorphism group Aut(X). Let ξ1 and ξ2 be independent X-valued random variables with distributions μ1 and μ2, respectively. Suppose that α1,α2,β1,β2∈Aut(X) and β1α−11±β2α−12∈Aut(X). Assuming that the conditional distribution of the linear form L2 given L1 is symmetric, where L2=β1ξ1+β2ξ2 and L1=α1ξ1+α2ξ2, we describe all possibilities for the μj. This is a group-theoretic analogue of Heyde’s characterization of Gaussian distributions on the real line.

A ring with involution ∗ is called ∗-clean if each of its elements is the sum of a unit and a projection (∗-invariant idempotent). In this paper, we consider the group algebras of the dihedral groups [Formula: see text], and the generalized quaternion groups [Formula: see text] with standard involution ∗. For the non-semisimple group algebra case, we characterize the ∗-cleanness of [Formula: see text] with a prime [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a commutative local ring. For the semisimple group algebra case, we investigate when [Formula: see text] is ∗-clean, where [Formula: see text] is the field of rational numbers [Formula: see text] or a finite field [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text].

Spectral Analysis And Synthesis

In 2004, a counterexample was given for a 1965 result of R. J. Elliott claiming that discrete spectral synthesis holds on every Abelian group. Since then the investigation of discrete spectral analysis and synthesis has gained traction. Characterizations of the Abelian groups that possess spectral analysis and spectral synthesis, respectively, were published in 2005. A characterization of the varieties on discrete Abelian groups enjoying spectral synthesis is still missing. We present a ring theoretical approach to the issue. In particular, we provide a generalization of the Principal Ideal Theorem on discrete Abelian groups.
