Abstract
Abstract In this paper, we investigate some properties of ideals in group algebras of finite groups over fields. First, we highlight an important link between their dimension, their minimal Hamming distance and the group order. This is a generalized version of an uncertainty principle shown in 1992 by Meshulam. Secondly, we introduce the notion of the Schur product of ideals in group algebras and investigate the module structure and the dimension of the Schur square. We give a structural result on ideals that coincide with their Schur square, and we provide conditions for an ideal to be such that its Schur square has the projective cover of the trivial module as a direct summand. This has particularly interesting consequences for group algebras of 𝑝-groups over fields of characteristic 𝑝.
