Group Rings – A Brief History and some their Generalizations

We give a brief exposition of the history of the group rings and some their generalizations. Also we indicate some information of certain problems and results.

A Computer Algebra Application to Determination of Lie Symmetries of Partial Differential Equations

The paper has been presented at the 12th International Conference on Applications of Computer Algebra, Varna, Bulgaria, June, 2006

Partial Quasi-Bilateral Generating Function Involving some Special Functions

A group-theoretic method of obtaining more general class of generating functions from a given class of partial quasi-bilateral generating functions involving Hermite, Laguerre and Gegenbaur polynomials are discussed.

Algorithms for Generating Near-Rings on Finite Cyclic Groups

In the present work are described the algorithms that generate all near-rings on finite cyclic groups of order 16 to 29.

Isomorphism of Commutative Group Algebras of Finite Abelian Groups

Let a commutative ring R be a direct product of indecomposable rings with identity and let G be a finite abelian p-group. In the present paper we give a complete system of invariants of the group algebra RG of G over R when p is an invertible element in R. These investigations extend some classical results of Berman (1953 and 1958), Sehgal (1970) and Karpilovsky (1984) as well as a result of Mollov (1986).
