โฆ Synopsis
Two theorems are proved, the first of them showing that a modular quaternion-free finite 2-group has a characteristic abelian subgroup with metacyclic factor, the second classifying nonmodular finite quaternion-free 2-groups.

Matrices whose entries belong to certain rings of algebraic integers are known to be associated with discrete groups of transformations of inversive n-space or hyperbolic n 1-space r n1 . In particular, groups operating in the hyperbolic plane or hyperbolic 3-space may be represented by 2 ร 2 matric
For each of the dihedral, semidihedral, and quaternion 2-groups, we represent the obstructions to certain Brauer problems as tensor products of quaternion algebras. Then we reduce various embedding problems with cyclic 2-kernels into two Brauer problems, thus finding the obstructions in some specifi
