Abstract: Let G be a finite group. A finite unordered sequence of terms from G, where repetition is allowed, is a product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered such that their product equals 1G, the identity element of the group. As usual, we consider sequences as elements of the free abelian monoid mathcalF(G) with basis G, and we study the submonoid mathcalB(G)subsetmathcalF(G) of all product-one sequences. This is a finitely generated C-monoid, which is a Krull monoid if and only if G is abelian. In case of abelian groups, mathcalB(G) is a well-studied object. In the present paper we focus on non-abelian groups, and we study the class semigroup and the arithmetic of mathcalB(G).
