An order in $\mathbb Q[G]$ which is a maximal $\mathbb Z_p$-order in $\mathbb Q_p[G]$ for finitely many primes $p$
Let $G$ be a finite group and $S$ a finite set of prime numbers. I know that every separable $\mathbb Q$-algebra $A$ contains a maximal $\mathbb Z$-order but I wonder if the following is true.
Is ...

Monogenic suborders of irreducible cubic orders
By an order of rank $n$ we mean a unital ring $R$ which is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}^n$. An order $R$ is irreducible if it is isomorphic to a subring of a degree $n$ number field $K$ and the fraction ...
