Abstract

Given an involution in a group G, it can be extended in various ways to an involution in the group ring RG, where R is a ring, not necessarily commutative. In this paper nonlinear extensions are considered and necessary and sufficient conditions are given on the group G, its involution, the ring R and the extension for the set of skew-symmetric elements to be commutative and for it to be anticommutative.
