Relation modules of infinite groups, II

Martin Evans (2014)

Open Mathematics

Let F n denote the free group of rank n and d(G) the minimal number of generators of the finitely generated group G. Suppose that R ↪ F m ↠ G and S ↪ F m ↠ G are presentations of G and let R ¯ and S ¯ denote the associated relation modules of G. It is well known that R ¯ ( G ) d ( G ) S ¯ ( G ) d ( G ) even though it is quite possible that . However, to the best of the author’s knowledge no examples have appeared in the literature with the property that . Our purpose here is to exhibit, for each integer k ≥ 1, a group G that has presentations...

Restricted Boolean group rings

Dinesh Udar, R.K. Sharma, J.B. Srivastava (2017)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper we study restricted Boolean rings and group rings. A ring R is 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑡𝑒𝑑𝐵𝑜𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑛 if every proper homomorphic image of R is boolean. Our main aim is to characterize restricted Boolean group rings. A complete characterization of non-prime restricted Boolean group rings has been obtained. Also in case of prime group rings necessary conditions have been obtained for a group ring to be restricted Boolean. A counterexample is given to show that these conditions are not sufficient.
