On Commutative Tensor Factors of Group Algebras
Abstract
Abstract We prove that any tensor product factorization with a commutative tensor factor of a modular group algebra over a prime field comes from a direct product decomposition of the group basis. This extends previous work by Carlson and Kovács for the commutative case and answers one of their questions in certain cases.
