Let $C_{p^n}$ denote a cyclic group of order $p^n$ for $p$ an odd prime and $n$ a positive integer. We present a conjecture for the torsion part of the Whitehead group of $C_{p^n}\\times C_{p^n}$ and we show that torsion part of the Whitehead group of the semidirect product of $C_{p^{n-1}}$ by $C_p$ is isomorphic to $C_p^{(n-2)(p-1)}$. The techniques we use can be applied to any abelian $p$-group and to many other $p$-gro"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1506.01120","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
