We consider the notion of a free resolution. In general, a free resolution can be of any length depending on the group ring under investigation. The metacyclic groups G ( p q ) however admit periodic resolutions. In the particular case of G ( 21 ) it is possible to achieve a fully diagonalized resolution . In order to achieve a diagonal resolution, we obtain a complete list of indecomposable modules over Λ . Such a list aids the decomposition of the augmentation ideal (the first syzygy ) into a direct sum of indecomposable modules. Therefore, we are able to achieve a diagonalized map here. From this point it is possible to decompose all of the remaining syzygies in terms of indecomposable modules, leaving a diagonal resolution.
