_ Let * be a root system in a £-dimensional real Euclidean space V with Weyl group W( £), and let W+{<f) denote its rotation subgroup. In [173 » the projective representations of the rotation subgroup W ( 9) have been determined from those of W( $) for each root system $. This is done by...

Saeed [11] has considered Schur multipliers of some of the finite abelian groups.The study of the schur multipliers of abelian groups is the first step in the studying of the projective representations of such groups. Our objective here is to determine the Inequivalent Irreducible projective...
