$\mathbb{Z}G$ (left) Noetherian$\Rightarrow$ $\ell^1(G)$ is a flat (right) $\mathbb{Z}G$-module?
Let $G$ be a countable discrete group (not necessarily abelian), and suppose the group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ is a left-Noetherian ring, for example, when $G$ is a polycyclic-by-finite group.
Denote the ...

Are these element in a group algebra of a torsion-free group zero divisors?
Let $G$ be an arbitrary torsion-free group. For $x,y\in G$, which of these elements can be decided immediately not to be zero divisors in $\mathbb ZG$ (or in $\mathbb CG$)?
$$1+x+y,\quad 4+x+x^{-1}+y+...
