On the K -ring of the classifying space of the generalized quaternion group

On the K -ring of the classifying space of the generalized quaternion group

We describe the K -ring of the classifying space of the generalized quaternion group in terms of generators and the minimal set of relations. We also compute the order of the main generator in the truncated rings.
