Vietnam Journal of Mathematics 34:3(2006) 265-273  Simply Presented Inseparable $V(RG)$ Without $R$ Being Weakly Perfect or Countable Peter Danchev Abstract.  It is constructed a special commutative unitary ring $R$ of characteristic 2, which is not necessarily weakly perfect (hence not perfect) or countable, and it is selected a multiplicative abelian 2-group $G$ that is a direct sum of countable groups such that $V(RG)$, the group of all normed 2-units in the group ring $RG$, is a direct sum of countable groups. So, this is the first result of the present type, which prompts that the conditions for perfection or countability on $R$ can be, probably, removed in general.   2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 16U60, 16S34, 20K10. Keywords: Unit groups, direct sums of countable groups, heightly-additive rings, weakly perfect rings.
