The trivial units conjecture for torsion-free groups
The trivial units conjecture for torsion-free groups
Let be a torsion-free group and let be an integral domain. The trivial units conjecture. satisfies the trivial units property for , meaning that the only units in the group ring are elements of the form , where and is a unit of . The conjecture was refuted by Gardam; variants and extensions produced non-trivial units over fields of every characteristic, while the original formulation for integral group rings remains open.
