Units in finite dihedral and quaternion group algebras
Let FqG be the group algebra of a finite group G over Fq=GF(q). Using the Wedderburn decomposition of F2kD2n/J(F2kD2n), we establish the structure of the unit group of F2kG when G is either D4n, the dihedral group of order 4n or Q4n, the generalized quaternion group of order 4n,n odd.
