Maximal Ideals in Modular Group Algebras of the Finitary Symmetric and Alternating Groups
The main result of the paper is a description of the maximal ideals in the modular group algebras of the finitary symmetric and alternating groups (provided the characteristic p of the ground field is greater than 2). For the symmetric group there are exactly p − 1 such ideals and for the alternating group there are (p − 1)/2 of them. The description is obtained in terms of the annihilators of ...
متن کاملWreath Products in the Unit Group of Modular Group Algebras of 2-groups of Maximal Class
We study the unit group of the modular group algebra KG, where G is a 2-group of maximal class. We prove that the unit group of KG possesses a section isomorphic to the wreath product of a group of order two with the commutator subgroup of the group G. MSC2000: Primary 16S34, 20C05; Secondary 16U60
متن کاملSymmetric Units in Modular Group Algebras
Let p be a prime, G a locally finite p -group, K a commutative ring of characteristic p . The anti-automorphism g 7→ g of G extends linearly to an anti-automorphism a 7→ a∗ of KG . An element a of KG is called symmetric if a∗ = a . In this paper we answer the question: for which G and K do the symmetric units of KG form a multiplicative group. Let G be a group, K a commutative ring (with 1), an...
متن کاملComplex Group Algebras of the Double Covers of the Symmetric and Alternating Groups
We prove that the double covers of the alternating and symmetric groups are determined by their complex group algebras. To be more precise, let n ≥ 5 be an integer, G a finite group, and let Ân and Ŝ ± n denote the double covers of An and Sn, respectively. We prove that CG ∼= CÂn if and only if G ∼= Ân, and CG ∼= CŜ + n ∼= CŜ − n if and only if G ∼= Ŝ + n or Ŝ − n . This in particular completes...
متن کاملAsymptotic Results on Modular Representations of Symmetric Groups and Almost Simple Modular Group Algebras
In fact, this is a question about infinite simple groups because it is easy for G finite, and because a non-trivial normal subgroup gives rise to a non-trivial ideal different from the augmentation ideal. Also note that the problem reduces easily to the question on when the augmentation ideal is simple as a ring. The first interesting class of groups with almost simple FG was discovered in [3]....
