Abstract

Since their definition in 1984 and subsequent publication in Meldrum and van der Walt [86], matrix near-rings have proved to be a useful and fruitful generalization of matrix rings. The same basic idea was used to define group near-rings, culminating in le Riche, Meldrum and van der Walt [89]. Not surprisingly this construction has not attracted as much attention and effort as matrix near-rings: after all matrix rings are much more commonly used than group rings. There are however some interesting results that have been developed and there are intriguing parallels between matrix near-rings and group near-rings. We present here an account of some of the recent work on group near-rings, emphasizing the parallels with matrix near-rings and the most recent developments. Much of this work was done in collaboration with J. H. Meyer.
