AbstractLet R be a finite unital commutative ring. We introduce a new class of finite groups, which we call hereditary groups over R. Our main result states that if G is a hereditary group over R, then a unital algebra isomorphism between group algebras {RG\cong RH} implies a group isomorphism {G\cong H} for every finite group H. As application, we study the modular isomorphism problem, which is the isomorphism problem for finite p-groups over {R=\mathbb{F}_{p}}, where {\mathbb{F}_{p}} is the field of p elements. We prove that a finite p-group G is a hereditary group over {\mathbb{F}_{p}} provided G is abelian, G is of class two and exponent p, or G is of class two and exponent four. These yield new proofs for the theorems by Deskins and Passi–Sehgal.

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with 1, and let $G$ be a finite group of automorphisms of $R$. Denote by $R^G$ the fixed subring of $G$, and let $I$ be a subset of $R^G$. In this paper we prove that if the ideal generated by $I$ in $R$ satisfies a certain property with regard to projectivity, flatness, multiplication or related concepts, then the ideal generated by $I$ in $R^G$ also satisfies the same property.

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)'.

AbstractIn the modular representation theory of finite groups, we show that the standard derivation of the Green correspondence lifts to a derivation of a Green correspondence for twisted group algebras (Theorem 1.3). Then, from these results we derive a lift of the Puig correspondences for twisted group algebras (Theorem 1.6).Clearly twisted group algebras arise naturally in finite group modular representation theory. We conclude with some suggestions for applications in this mathematical area.

Two recent results relate the existence of injective modules for group algebras which are ‘small’ in some sense to the structure of the group.(1) The trivial kG-module is injective if and only if G is a locally finite group with no elements of order p = char k (9).(2) If (G) is a countable group, then every irreducible kG-module is injective if and only if G is a locally finite p′ group which is abelian-by-finite (9) and (11)

Throughout this paper, k denotes a commutative ring. We will develop a theory of homological finiteness conditions for modules over certain graded k-algebras which generalizes known theory for group algebras. The simplest of our results, Theorem A below, generalizes certain results of Aljadeff and Yi on crossed products of polycyclic-by-finite groups (cf. [1, 11]), but also applies to many other crossed products in cases where little was previously known. Before stating the results, we recall definitions of graded and strongly graded rings. Let G be a monoid. Naively, a G-graded k-algebra is a k-algebra R which admits a k-module decomposition,in such a way that Rg Rh ⊆ for all g, h ∈ G. If R is a G-graded k-algebra and X is any subset of G, then we write Rx for the k-submodule of R supported on X; that isNote that if H is a submonoid of G then RH is a subalgebra of R.

AbstractWe give an explicit approach for Bockstein homomorphisms of the Hochschild cohomology of a group algebra and of a block algebra of a finite group and we show some properties. To give explicit definitions for these maps we use an additive decomposition and a product formula for the Hochschild cohomology of group algebras given by Siegel and Witherspoon in 1999.

Abstract A subgroup H of a finite group G is called weakly pronormal in G if there exists a subgroup K of G such that G = H K G=HK and H ∩ K H\cap K is pronormal in G. In this paper, we investigate the structure of the finite groups in which some subgroups are weakly pronormal. Our results improve and generalize many known results.

M. Suzuki [3] has proved the following theorem. Let G be a finite group which has an involution t such that C = CG(t) ≅ SL(2, q) and q odd. Then G has an abelian odd order normal subgroup A such that G = CA and C ∩ A = 〈1〉.

Let G be a finite group, p the smallest prime dividing the order of G, and P a Sylow p-subgroup of G with the smallest generator number d. Consider a set [Formula: see text] of maximal subgroups of P such that [Formula: see text]. It is shown that if every member [Formula: see text] of is either S-quasinormally embedded or C-normal in G, then G is p-nilpotent. As its applications, some further results are obtained.

AbstractIn this paper the authors study quotients of the product of elliptic curves by a rigid diagonal action of a finite group G. It is shown that only for $$G = {{\,\mathrm{He}\,}}(3), {\mathbb {Z}}_3^2$$ G = He ( 3 ) , Z 3 2 , and only for dimension $$\ge 4$$ ≥ 4 such an action can be free. A complete classification of the singular quotients in dimension 3 and the smooth quotients in dimension 4 is given. For the other finite groups a strong structure theorem for rigid quotients is proven.
