To study permutation groups containing regular subgroups, Schur introduced the concept of a special subring of the integer group ring, now called an S-ring (or Schur ring). As Wielandt wrote, Schur had conjectured that every S-ring can be constructed from a suitable permutation group containing a regular subgroup. However, as Wielandt showed, this conjecture turned out to be false. Pöschel introduced the notions of a schurian S-ring, i.e., an S-ring that can be constructed from a suitable permutation group containing a regular subgroup, as well as the notion of a Schur group, i.e., a finite group such that all S-rings over it are schurian. In the same work, the problem of determining all Schur groups was posed. In general, this problem seems to be hard, in particular because the number of S-rings over a given group can be exponential in the order of the group. The list of all possible abelian Schur groups was obtained by Evdokimov, Kovács, and Ponomarenko.
In the talk, we will present a complete classification of abelian Schur groups and discuss some results on nonabelian Schur groups.
