Some results concerning simple locally finite groups of 1-type
2005
AbstractIn this paper several aspects of infinite simple locally finite groups of 1-type are considered. In the first part, the classes of diagonal limits of finite alternating groups, of diagonal limits of finite direct products of alternating groups, and of absolutely simple groups of 1-type are distinguished from each other. In the second part, inductive systems of representations over fields of characteristic zero (which are known to correspond to ideals in the group algebra) are studied in general for groups of 1-type. The roles of primitive respectively imprimitive representations in inductive systems are investigated. Moreover it is shown that in any proper inductive system the depth…
Central idempotents and units in rational group algebras of alternating groups
1998
Let ℚAn be the group algebra of the alternating group over the rationals. By exploiting the theory of Young tableaux, we give an explicit description of the minimal central idempotents of ℚAn. As an application we construct finitely many generators for a subgroup of finite index in the centre of the group of units of ℚAn.
On permutations of class sums of alternating groups
1997
We prove a result concerning the class sums of the alternating group An; as a consequence we deduce that if θ is a normalized automorphism of the integral group ring then there exists such that is the identity on , where Sn:is the symmetric group and is the center of

Star representations of E(2)
1990
We give a complete and explicit realization of the unitary irreducible representations of the universal covering group G of E(2), the Euclidean group in two dimensions, by deformation of the algebra of functions on the dual g* of the Lie algebra of G. We define an adapted Fourier transform for G which gives a natural description of the harmonic analysis of G.
