Any f.p. faithful simple module over a primitive group ring?
Recall that a ring $R$ is primitive if it has a faithful simple left module. Let $G$ be a countable discrete group and $R=\mathbb{k}G$, where $\mathbb{k}$ denotes some field or $\mathbb{Z}$.
There ...

non-abelian tensor products of several groups
R. Brown and J-L. Loday had defined the tensor product of two arbitrary groups acting on each other. Let $G,H$ be groups with actions on each other on the right. each group act on itself by ...

How to go from primitive idempotents in $\text{End}_A(M)$ to primitive idempotents in $A$?
Let $K$ be a large enough finite field, let $A$ be a finite-dimensional $K$-algebra.
Moreover, let $M$ be a finitely generated $A$-module and let $M = M_1\oplus ... \oplus M_n$ be a decomposition of $...

Intersections of generating sets of subalgebras
Let $A$ be a finitely generated, finitely presented, Noetherian, unital algebra over the complex numbers, which has no zero divisors. We do not assume that $A$ is commutative however.
Moreover, let $...

The group of automorphisms and anti-automorphisms of the first Weyl algebra
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $A_1=A_1(k)$ be the first Weyl algebra.
It is well known (first proved by Dixmier, if I am not wrong) that the group of automorphisms of $A_1$, ...

Computing the Abelianization of an Automorphism Group
Setup: We are working in a Henselian local ring $(R, \mathfrak m, k)$ that way may assume is Cohen-Macaulay, admits a canonical module and is of finite type (so is an isolated singularity). Let $M_1,...

Zero divisors in the extra-special group algebra $\mathbb{R}[2^{1+6}_+]$
Can you characterize the unit-group of the real group-algebra of the extraspecial plus-type 2-group of order 128? (That is $\mathbb{R}[2_+^{1+6}]$ using Conway's notation.)
(Please choose any irrep ...

Lattices with trivial coinvariants for finite groups
Let $G$ be a finite group. A $\mathbb{Z}G$-lattice is a $\mathbb{Z}G$-module that is (as abelian group) a free abelian group of finite rank.
Question: Is there a finite group $G$ and a $\mathbb{Z}...

Sequences generated from commuted quaternions and general commuted linear transformations
Given a pair of non-commuting linear transformations, $A$ and $B$, define the "next
pair" in a sequence as $A*B$ and $B*A$. I am interested in finite cycles (i.e.,
the sequence eventually ...

An action on multiplicatively antisymmetric matrix
A matrix $ Q=(q_{ij})$ is called multiplicatively antisymmetric over a field $ F $ if $ q_{ii}=1 $ and $ q_{ij}={q_{ji}}^{-1} $.Let $ \mathcal{Q} $ be the set of all $ n \times n $ multiplicatively ...

Basic question about power series and complete group algebras
This is a pretty basic question, but I suspect it might be too exotic for math.stackexchange.
Let $\mathbb{Z}_p$ be the $p$-adic integers. For free pro-$p$ group $F_r$ of rank $r$, we can consider ...
