Factorization of group determinant in some group algebras


Abstract in English

We give an analog of Frobenius theorem about the factorization of the group determinant on the group algebra of finite abelian groups and we extend it into dihedral groups and generalized quaternion groups. Furthermore, we describe the group determinant of dihedral groups and generalized quaternion groups as a circulant determinant of homogeneous polynomials. This analog on the group algebra is stronger than Frobeniuss theorem and as a corollary, we obtain a simple expression formula for inverse elements in the group algebra. Furthermore, the commutators of irreducible factors of the factorization of the group determinant on the group algebra corresponding to degree one representations have interesting algebraic properties. From this result, we know that degree one representations form natural pairing. At the current stage, the extension of Frobeinus theorem is not represent as a determinant. We expect to find a determinant expression similar to Frobenius theorem.
