Abstract

Every code in the latest study of group ring codes is a submodule thathas a generator. Study reveals that each of these binary group ring codes can havemultiple generators that have diverse algebraic properties. However, idempotentgenerators get the most attention as codes with an idempotent generator are easierto determine its minimal distance. We have fully identify all idempotents in everybinary cyclic group ring algebraically using basis idempotents. However, the conceptof basis idempotent constrained the exibilities of extending our work into the studyof identication of idempotents in non-cyclic groups. In this paper, we extend theconcept of basis idempotent into idempotent that has a generator, called a generatedidempotent. We show that every idempotent in an abelian group ring is either agenerated idempotent or a nite sum of generated idempotents. Lastly, we show away to identify all idempotents in every binary abelian group ring algebraically by fully obtain the support of each generated idempotent.
