Let U be the group of units of the group algebra FG of a group G over a field F. Suppose that either F is infinite or G has an element of infinite order. We characterize groups G so that U satisfies a group identity. Under the assumption that G modulo the torsion elements is nilpotent this gives a c

We study units of twisted group algebras. Let G be a finite group and K be a field of characteristic p > 0. Assume that K is not algebraic over a finite field. We determine when units of K t G do not contain any nonabelian free subgroup. We also discuss what will happen when G is locally finite. For
We compute the identities and the central identities of degree F6 of the Cayley᎐Dickson algebras. Our process can be used to compute identities of higher degree. We assume a field of characteristic 0 or greater than the degree of the identities studied. Our identities are homogeneous multilinear pol
