Abstract—We study codes with a single check element derived from group rings, namely, checkable codes. The notion of a codecheckable group ring is introduced. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a group ring to be code-checkable are given in the case where the group is a finite abelian group and the ring is a finite field. This characterization leads to many good examples, among which two c...

we investigate the classical h.~zassenhaus conjecture‎ ‎for integral group rings of alternating groups $a_9$ and $a_{10}$ of degree‎ ‎$9$ and $10$‎, ‎respectively‎. ‎as a consequence of our‎ ‎previous results we confirm the prime graph‎ ‎conjecture for integral group rings of $a_n$ for all $n leq 10$‎.
