Let p be a prime, K a field of characteristic p, G a locally finite p-group, KG the group algebra, and V the group of the units of KG with augmentation 1. The anti-automorphism g\mapsto g^{-1} of G extends linearly to KG; this extension…

Let F be the field of two elements and G a finite abelian 2-group with an involutory automorphism. The extension of this automorphism to the group algebra FG is called an involutory involution. This determines the groups of unitary and…

Let p be an odd prime, F the field of p elements and G a finite abelian p-group with an arbitrary involutory automorphism. Extend this automorphism to the group algebra FG and consider the unitary and the symmetric normalized units of FG.…

Let V(KG) be a normalised unit group of the modular group algebra of a finite p-group G over the field K of p elements. We introduce a notion of symmetric subgroups in V(KG) as subgroups invariant under the action of the classical…

Let V_* be the normalized unitary subgroup of the modular group algebra FG of a finite p-group G over a finite field F with the classical involution *. We investigate the isomorphism problem for the group V_*, that asks when the group V_*…

We describe those group algebras over fields of characteristic different from 2 whose units symmetric with respect to the classical involution, satisfy some group identity.

Let $FG$ be the group algebra of a finite $p$-group $G$ over a finite field $F$ of characteristic $p$ and $*$ the classical involution of $FG$. The $*$-unitary subgroup of $FG$, denoted by $V_*(FG)$, is defined to be the set of all…

We show that the Beurling algebra with a weight-dependent convolution and the group algebra $L^1(G)$ are isomorphic. In particular, using this isomorphism, we extend some results of the algebra $\mathscr{L}^1(G,\omega)$ presented in recent…

It this note we investigate the structure of the group of \sigma-unitary units in some noncommutative modular group algebras KG, where \sigma is a non-classical ring involution of KG.

Let $G$ be a finite, non-abelian group of the form $G = A N$, where $A \leq G$ is abelian, and $N \trianglelefteq G$ is cyclic. We prove that the commuting graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is either a connected graph of diameter at most four, or…

In this paper we introduce a new species of evolution algebras that we call Cayley evolution algebras. We show that if a field $k$ contains sufficiently many elements (for example if $k$ is infinite) then every finite group $G$ is…

Given locally compact quantum groups $\G_1$ and $\G_2$, we show that if the convolution algebras $L^1(\G_1)$ and $L^1(\G_2)$ are isometrically isomorphic as algebras, then $\G_1$ is isomorphic either to $\G_2$ or the commutant $\G_2'$.…

If A is a finite dimensional nilpotent associative algebra over a finite field k, the set G=1+A of all formal expressions of the form 1+a, where a is an element of A, has a natural group structure, given by (1+a)(1+b)=1+(a+b+ab). A finite…

We determine the number of elements of order two in the group of normalized units V(F_2G) of the group algebra F_2G of a 2-group of maximal class over the field F_2 of two elements. As a consequence for the 2-groups G and H of maximal class…

Let $KG$ denote the group algebra of the group $G$ over the field $K$ and let $U(KG)$ denote its group of units. Here without the use of a computer we give presentations for the unit groups of all group algebras $KG$, where the size of $KG$…

The commuting graph of a non-abelian group is a simple graph in which the vertices are the non-central elements of the group, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they commute. In this paper, we classify (up to isomorphism)…
