On the Twisted Group Ring Isomorphism Problem for isoclinic groups

In this article, we consider a general version of the classical group ring isomorphism problem, called the twisted group ring isomorphism problem (TGRIP), which determines an isomorphism between the twisted complex group algebras of finite groups. Although for isoclinic groups $G$ and $H$ their complex group algebras are isomorphic, i.e, $\mathbb C G \cong \mathbb C H$, their twisted complex group algebras need not be isomorphic. Continuing this line of investigation, we establish sufficient conditions under which two isoclinic groups have isomorphic twisted complex group algebras, thereby providing solutions to (TGRIP) for isoclinic groups. As applications, we study (TGRIP) for special $p$-groups of rank $2$, unicentral groups, and nilpotent groups of class $2$ with elementary abelian Schur multipliers, all considered up to isoclinism. We also present several examples illustrating the main results, including a complete solution of (TGRIP) for special $p$-groups of rank $2$ of order $p^6(p \ge 3)$

On the Schur multiplier of $p$-groups with abelianization $s$-elementary abelian

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We describe a method to compute the Schur multiplier of finite $p$-groups $G$ of nilpotency class $2$ such that $G/[G,G]$ is isomorphic to direct product of copies of $\mathbb{Z}_{p^s}$ for $s \in \mathbb{N}$, generalizing a method of Blackburn and Evens, who treated the case $s=1$. As an application, we investigate which abelian $p$-groups can occur as the Schur multiplier of a non-abelian $p$-group. We further introduce the notions of $s$-special $p$-groups of rank $k$ generalizing the notion of special $p$-groups of rank $k$. We study the structural properties, compute the Schur multipliers of $s$-special $p$-groups of rank $1$.

On the Twisted Group Ring Isomorphism Problem for a class of groups

The twisted group ring isomorphism problem (TGRIP) is a variation of the classical group ring isomorphism problem. It asks whether the ring structure of the twisted group ring determines the group up to isomorphism. In this article, we study the TGRIP for direct product and central product of groups. We provide some criteria to answer the TGRIP for groups by answering the TGRIP for the associated quotients. As an application of these results, we provide several examples. Finally, we answer the TGRIP for extra-special p-groups, and for the groups of order $p^5$, where $p \geq 5$ is a prime, except a list of five groups.
