Abstract

It is shown that if the group ring RQ8 of the quaternion group Q8 of order 8 over an integral domain R is duo, then R is a field for the following cases: (1) char R ≠ 0, and (2) char R = 0 and S ⊆ R ⊆ KS, where S is a ring of algebraic integers and KS is its quotient field. Hence, we confirm that the field ℚ of rational numbers is the smallest integral domain R of characteristic zero such that RQ8 is duo. A non-field integral domain R of characteristic zero for which RQ8 is duo is also identified. Moreover, we give a description of when the group ring RG of a torsion group G is duo.
