Let G be a finite group. A Z [G]-lattice is a finitely generated Z-torsionfree module over the group ring Z [G]. There is a general conjecture concerning classes of modules over sufficiently recursive rings, and linking wildness and undecidability. Given a finite group G, Z [G] is sufficiently recursive, and our aim here is just to investigate this conjecture for Z [G]-lattices. In this setting, the conjecture says thatif and only ifIn particular, we wish to deal here with the direction from the left to the right, so the one assuring that wildness implies undecidability. Of course, before beginning the analysis of this problem, one should agree upon a sharp definition of wildness for lattices. But, for our purposes, one might alternatively accept as a starting point a general classification of wild Z [G]-lattices when G is a finite p-group for some prime p, based on the isomorphism type of G. This is due to several authors and can be found, for instance, in [3]. It says that, when p is a prime and G is a finite p-group, thenif and only if.More precisely, the representation type of Z [G]-lattices is finite when G is cyclic of order ≤ p2, tame domestic when G is the Klein group [1], tame non-domestic when G is cyclic of order 8 [11].So our claim might be stated as follows.

Let R be a commutative ring, Γ a finite group acting on R, and let k∈ℕ be invertible in R. Generalizing a definition of Kervaire, we construct an Adams operation ψk on the Grothendieck group and on the higher K-theory of projective modules over the twisted group ring R#Γ. For this, we generalize Atiyah's cyclic power operations and use shuffle products in higher K-theory. For the Grothendieck group, we show that ψk is multiplicative and that it commutes with base change, with the Cartan homomorphism, and with ψl for any other l which is invertible in R.

AbstractA ring R is called quasi-Baer if the right annihilator of every right ideal of R is generated by an idempotent as a right ideal. We investigate the quasi-Baer property of skew group rings and fixed rings under a finite group action on a semiprime ring and their applications to C*-algebras. Various examples to illustrate and delimit our results are provided.

Let G be a finite group and let g be the augmentation ideal of the integral group ring G. Following Gruenberg(5) we let (g̱) denote the category whose objects are short exact sequences of zG-modules of the form and in which the morphisms are commutative diagramsIn this paper we describe the projective objects in this category. These are the objects which satisfy the usual categorical definition of projectivity, but they may also be characterized as the short exact sequencesin which P is a projective module.

For every ring S with identity, the (right) Ziegler spectrum of S, Zgs, is the set of (isomorphism classes of) indecomposable pure injective (right) S-modules. The Ziegler topology equips Zgs with the structure of a topological space. A typical basic open set in this topology is of the formwhere φ and ψ are pp-formulas (with at most one free variable) in the first order language Ls for S-modules; let [φ/ψ] denote the closed set Zgs - (φ/ψ). There is an alternative way to introduce the Ziegler topology on Zgs. For every choice of two f.p. (finitely presented) S-modules A, B and an S-module homomorphism f: A → B, consider the set (f) of the points N in Zgs such that some S-homomorphism h: A → N does not factor through f. Take (f) as a basic open set. The resulting topology on Zgs is, again, the Ziegler topology.The algebraic and model-theoretic relevance of the Ziegler topology is discussed in [Z], [P] and in many subsequent papers, including [P1], [P2] and [P3], for instance. Here we are interested in the Ziegler spectrum ZgRG of a group ring RG, where R is a Dedekind domain of characteristic 0 (for example R could be the ring Z of integers) and G is a finite group. In particular we deal with the R-torsionfree points of ZgRG.The main motivation for this is the study of RG-lattices (i.e., finitely generated R-torsionfree RG-modules).

For a finite group G and an arbitrary prime p, letSP(G)denote the intersection of all maximal subgroups M of G such that [G:M] is both composite and not divisible by p; if no such M exists we setSP(G)= G. Some properties of G are considered involvingSP(G). In particular, we obtain a characterization of G when each M in the definition ofSP(G)is nilpotent.

Let G be a finite group. A subgroup H of G is said to be S-permutable in G if itpermutes with all Sylow subgroups of G. In this note we prove that if P, the Sylowp-subgroup of G (p > 2), has a subgroup D such that 1 <|D|<|P| and all subgroups H of P with |H| = |D| are S-permutable in G, then G′ is p-nilpotent.

Let G be a finite group. A subgroup H of G is called conjugate-permutable in G if HHg = HgH for any g ∈ G. A group G is called an ECP-group if every subgroup of G is conjugate-permutable in G. In this paper, we study the influence of conjugate-permutable subgroups on the structure of a finite group, especially on the nilpotency or supersolvability of the group, and give some sufficient or necessary conditions for a finite group to be an ECP-group.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite group. A subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is called to be [Formula: see text]-permutable in [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] permutes with all Sylow subgroups of [Formula: see text]. A subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is said to be [Formula: see text]-supplemented in [Formula: see text] if there exists a subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-permutable in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we investigate [Formula: see text]-nilpotency of a finite group. As applications, we give some sufficient and necessary conditions for a finite group belongs to a saturated formation.
