Let $G$ be an abelian group, $R$ a commutative ring of prime characteristic $p$ with identity and $R_{t}G$ a commutative twisted group ring of $G$ over $R$. Suppose $p$ is a fixed prime, $G_p$ and $S\left(R_{t}G\right)$ are the $p$-components of $G$ and of the unit group $U\left(R_{t}G\right)$ of $R_{t}G$, respectively. Let $R^{*}$ be the multiplicative group of $R$ and let $f_{\alpha }\left(S\right)$ be the $\alpha$-th Ulm-Kaplansky invariant of $S\left(R_{t}G\right)$ where $\alpha$ is any ordinal. In the paper the invariants $f_n\left(S\right)$, $n\in \mathbb{N}\cup \left\{0\right\}$, are calculated, provided $G_p=1$. Further, a commutative ring $R$ with identity of prime characteristic $p$ is said...
