Abstract

Let L be an RA loop, that is, a loop whose loop ring in any characteristic is an alternative, but not associative, ring. Let f : L ->[+/- 1] be a homomorphism and for alpha = Sigma alpha(l)l in the integral loop ring ZL, define alpha(f) = Sigma alpha(l)f(l)l(-1). A unit u is an element of ZL is said to be f-unitary if u(f) = +/- u(-1). The set U-f (ZL) of all f-unitary units is a subloop of U(ZL), the loop of all units in ZL. In this paper, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for U-f (ZL) to be normal in U(ZL). (AU)
