Abstract

Let $G$ be a finite group, and $\mathscr{C}$ a $G$-abelian category. We prove that the skew group category $\mathscr{C}(G)$ is an abelian category under the condition that the order $|G|$ is invertible in $\mathscr{C}$. When the order $|G|$ is not invertible in $\mathscr{C}$, an example is given to show that $\mathscr{C}(G)$ is not an abelian category.
