For the generalized quaternion group G, this article deals with the problem of presenting the nth power Δn(G) of the augmentation ideal Δ (G) of the integral group ring ZG. The structure of Qn(G)=Δn(G)/Δn+1(G) is obtained.

We denote by ZG the integral group ring of the finite group G. We call ±g, for g in G, a trivial unit of ZG. For G abelian, Higman [4] (see also [3, p. 262 ff]) showed that every unit of finite order in ZG is trivial. For arbitrary finite G (indeed, for a torsion group G, not necessarily finite), Higman [4] showed that every unit in ZG is trivial if and only if G is(i) abelian and the order of each element divides 4, or(ii) abelian and the order of each element divides 6, or(iii) the direct product of the quaternion group of order 8 and an abelian group of exponent 2.

Let G be a group, ZG its integral group ring and U(ZG) the group of units of ZG. The elements ±g∈U(ZG), g∈G, are called the trivial units of ZG. In this note we will proveLet G be a finite group. If ZG contains a non-trivial unit of finite order then it contains infinitely many non-trivial units of finite order.In [1] S. D. Berman has shown that if G is finite then every unit of finite order in ZG is trivial if and only if G is abelian or G is the direct product of a quaternion group of order 8 and an elementary abelian 2-group.

Let G be a group, ZG its integral group ring and Δ = Δ(G) the augmentation ideal of ZG. Denote by Gi the ith term of the lower central series of G. Following Passi [3], we set . It is well-known that (see, for example [1]). In [3] Passi shows that if G is an abelian group then , the second symmetric power of G.

Let G be an Abelian group, the symmetric algebra of G and the associated graded ring of the integral group ring ZG, where (AG denotes the augmentation ideal of ZG). Then there is a natural epimorphism (4)which is given on the nth component byIn general θ is not an isomorphism. In fact Bachmann and Grünenfelder(1) have shown that for finite Abelian G, θ is an isomorphism if and only if G is cyclic. Thus it is of interest to investigate ker θn for finite Abelian groups. In view of proposition 3.25 of (3) it is enough to consider finite Abelian p-groups.

We study certain subgroups of the Schur multiplicator of a group G. These subgroups are related to the identification of subgroups of G determind by ideals in its integral group ring ℤ[G]. Suitably defined transfinite powers of the augmentation ideal of ℤ[G] provide an increasing transfinite filtration of the Schur multiplicator of G. We investigate the relationship of this filtration with the transfinite lower central series of groups which are HZ-local in the sense of Bousfield.

If M is a group, Z(M) its integral group ring and AM the augmentation ideal, then following Passi we can form the Abelian groups
