If \(k\) is a field, the projective Schur group \(\operatorname{PS}(k)\) of \(k\) is the subgroup of the Brauer group \(\operatorname{Br}(k)\) consisting of those classes which contain a projective Schur algebra, i.e., a homomorphic image of a twisted group algebra \(k^{\text {" }} G\) with \(G\) fi

โฆ Synopsis
The Brauer-Witt Theorem states that every Schur algebra over a รฟeld K is Brauer equivalent to a cyclotomic algebra. A central conjecture on the projective Schur group of a รฟeld is the analogue of this theorem, which asserts that every projective Schur algebra over a รฟeld K is Brauer equivalent to a radical algebra. The conjecture is so far known to be true in characteristic p and for local and global รฟelds. The next natural class of รฟelds to test is power series รฟelds over local and global รฟelds. In this paper we verify the conjecture for these รฟelds and more generally for iterated power series รฟelds over local and global รฟelds.
