How to find order of Jacobson Radical

231 Views Asked by At

Is there any method to find order of Jacobson Radical of any ring that is non semi simple? Actually i have to find order of Jacobson radical of Group algebra $F_{3^n}(GL_2(Z_3))$. Is there any way by using GAP. Please help me.. Thanks.

Lets assume (as in your examples) that the ring is in fact an algebra. Since the Jacobson radical is the maximal nilpotent ideal, you can use RadicalOfAlgebra, i.e.

RadicalOfAlgebra(GroupRing(GF(3),GL(2,3)));

In the example the codimension 28 agrees with the degrees (1,1,2,2,3,3) of the Brauer characters.
