Clifford-Weil groups for finite group rings, some examples. (English) Zbl 1210.94110
Summary: Finite group rings carry a natural involution that defines a form ring structure. We investigate the associated Clifford-Weil groups for the indecomposable representations of the groups of order \(2,3\) and the symmetric group \(\text{Sym}_3\) over the fields with 2 and 3 elements as well as suitable symmetrizations. An analogue of Kneser’s neighboring method is introduced, to classify all self-dual codes in a given representation.
