Group algebras of some generalised soluble groups
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2009
Extract
In (8) Stonehewer referred to the following open question due to Amitsur: If G is a torsion-free group and F any field, is the group algebra, FG, of G over F semi-simple? Stonehewer showed the answer was in the affirmative if G is a soluble group. In this paper we show the answer is again in the affirmative if G belongs to a class of generalised soluble groups
