Abstract:Let [Formula: see text] be the group algebra of the modular group [Formula: see text] over a finite field [Formula: see text] of characteristic two. We calculate the order of the ∗-unitary subgroup of the group algebra [Formula: see text] and describe the structure of the ∗-unitary subgroup in the case when [Formula: see text].
“…The unitary subgroups have been proven to be very useful subgroups in several studies (see [2,3,4,6,7,10,11,13,14,15] and [16]). However, we know very little about their structure, as even finding their order is a challenging problem.…”
Let F G be the group algebra of a finite p-group G over a finite field F of positive characteristic p. Let ⊛ be an involution of the algebra F G which is a linear extension of an anti-automorphism of the group G to F G. If p is an odd prime, then the order of the ⊛-unitary subgroup of F G is established. For the case p = 2 we generalize a result obtained for finite abelian 2-groups. It is proved that the order of the * -unitary subgroup of F G of a non-abelian 2-group is always divisible by a number which depends only on the size of F , the order of G and the number of elements of order two in G. Moreover, we show that the order of the * -unitary subgroup of F G determines the order of the finite p-group G.
