Abstract

It was proved by Valenti and Zaicev, in 2011, that, if GG is an abelian group and KK is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, then any GG-grading on the algebra of upper block triangular matrices over KK is isomorphic to a tensor product Mn(K)UT(n1,n2,,nd)M_n(K)\otimes UT(n_1,n_2,\ldots,n_d), where UT(n1,n2,,nd)UT(n_1,n_2,\ldots,n_d) is endowed with an elementary grading and Mn(K)M_n(K) is provided with a division grading. In this paper, we prove the validity of the same result for a non necessarily commutative group and over an adequate field (characteristic either zero or large enough), not necessarily algebraically closed.
