Let \(\mathcal A_0\) be the class of torsion-free reduced block-rigid almost completely decomposable groups of ring type with cyclic regulator quotient. \(\mathcal A_0\) is one of the few classes of torsion-free abelian groups with a useful classification, see [\textit{A. Mader}, Almost completely decomposable groups. Amsterdam: Gordon and Breach (2000; Zbl 0945.20031)]. In this paper, the authors study the multiplication group Mult\((G)=G\otimes G\) of a group \(G\in \mathcal A_0\) and the consequent properties of rings on \(G\). Their principal result is that Mult\((G)\) is also in \(\mathcal A_0\). They derive its isomorphism and quasi-isomorphism invariants such as rank, regulator, regulator index, main decomposition and standard representation in terms of the corresponding invariants of \(G\).
