when addition and multiplication are defined in the obvious way, form a ring, the group-ring of G over K, which will be denoted by R (G, K). Henceforward, we suppose that K has the modulus 1, and we denote the identity in G by e0. Then R(G,K) has the modulus l.e0. Since no confusion can arise thereby, the element 1. e in R(G, K) will be written as e, and whenever it is convenient, the elements ...
