The conjecture that every torsionfree group is a Linnell group
The conjecture that every torsionfree group is a Linnell group
A Linnell group is a group for which, for every field and crossed product , a Linnell division ring exists and is unique up to -isomorphism. Torsionfree-groups conjecture. Every torsionfree group is a Linnell group.
This conjecture concerns the existence and uniqueness of division-ring embeddings for group crossed products. The source attributes it to Jaikin-Zapirain; its status is not resolved in the supplied text.
