A group \(G\) is said to be a UP-group, if for every two nonempty subsets \(X\) and \(Y\) in \(G\) there exists an element \(g\in G\) with a unique representation \(g=xy\) for some \(x\in X\) and \(y\in Y\). Let \(G\) be a nonabelian UP-group and \(k\) a field of characteristic zero. Then there exists an invertible matrix over the group algebra \(kG\) such that its transpose is not invertible. Let a group \(G\) have a surjective homomorphism onto free nilpotent group of degree 2 with 2 generators. Suppose that the field \(k\) has characteristic zero. Then the sets of left and right modular rows over group algebra \(kG\) do not coincide.
