Let G be a finite group and F a complete local noetherian commutative ring with residue field of characteristic p # 0. Let A(G) denote the representation algebra of G with respect to F. This is a linear algebra over the complex field whose basis elements are the isomorphism-classes of indecomposable finitely generated FG-representation modules, with addition and multiplication induced by direct sum and tensor product respectively. The two authors have separately found decompositions of A(G) as direct sums of subalgebras. In this note we show that the decompositions in one case have a common refinement given in the other's paper.

Let p be an odd prime and G = HB be a semi-direct product where H is a cyclic, p-Sylow subgroup and B is finite Abelian. If K is a field of characteristic p the isomorphism classes of KG-modules relative to direct sum and tensor product generate a ring a(G) called the representation ring of G over K. If K is algebraically closed it is shown in (4) that there is a ring isomorphism a(G) ≃ a(HB2)⊗a(B1) where B1 is the kernel of the action of B on H and B2 = B/B1.> 2, Aut (H) is cyclic thus HB2 is metacyclic. The study of the multiplicative structure of a(G) is thus reduced to that of the known rings a(B1) and a(HB2) (see (3)).

Let Λ be the set of inequivalent representations of a finite group over a field . Λ is made the basis of an algebra over the complex numbers , called the representation algebra, in which multiplication corresponds to the tensor product of representations and addition to direct sum. Green [5] has shown that if char (the non-modular case) or if is cyclic, then is semi-simple, i.e. is a direct sum of copies of . Here we consider two modular, non-cyclic cases, viz, where is or 4 (alternating group) and is of characteristic 2.

Throughout this paper F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p (≠ 0) and g is a finite group whose order is divisible by p. We define in the usual way an F-representation of g (or F G-representation) and its corresponding module. The isomorphism class of the, F G-representation module M is written {M} or, where no confusion arises, M. A (G) denotes the F-representation algebra of G over the complex field G (as defined on pages 73 and 82 of [6]).

An associative ring R with identity is called a left (right) FPF ring if given any finitely generated faithful left (right) R-module A and any left (right) R-module M then M is the epimorphic image of a direct sum of copies of A. Faith and Page have asked if the subring of elements fixed by a finite group of automorphisms of an FPF ring need also be FPF. Here we present examples showing the answer to be negative in general.

Let G be a finite group with a normal Sylow p-subgroup P. Let [Formula: see text] be a complete discrete valuation ring with residue field F of characteristic p. Let M be an indecomposable endo-monomial [Formula: see text]-module. In this paper we prove that M extends to an [Formula: see text]-module if and only if M is G-stable. A similar and well-known version for endo-permutation modules is due to Dade.

AbstractAn equivariant map queer Lie superalgebra is the Lie superalgebra of regular maps from an algebraic variety (or scheme) X to a queer Lie superalgebra q that are equivariant with respect to the action of a finite group Γ acting on X and q. In this paper, we classify all irreducible finite-dimensional representations of the equivariant map queer Lie superalgebras under the assumption that Γ is abelian and acts freely on X. We show that such representations are parameterized by a certain set of Γ-equivariant finitely supported maps from X to the set of isomorphism classes of irreducible finite-dimensional representations of q. In the special case where X is the torus, we obtain a classification of the irreducible finite-dimensional representations of the twisted loop queer superalgebra.

AbstractLet G be a cyclic group of prime order p and K a field of characteristic p. The set of classes of isomorphic indecomposable (K, G)-modules forms a basis over the complex field for an algebra p (Green, 1962) with addition and multiplication being derived from direct sum and tensor product operations.Algebras n with similar properties can be defined for all n ≥ 2. Each such algebra is isomorphic to a matrix algebra Mn of n × n matrices with complex entries and standard operations. The characters of elements of n are the eigenvalues of the corresponding matrices in Mn.

The group ring of a finite abelian group G over the field of rational numbers Q and over the rational integers Z is studied. A new proof of the fact that the group ring QG is a direct sum of cyclotomic fields is given – without use of the Maschke and Wedderburn theorems; it is shown that the projections of QG onto these fields are determined by the inequivalent characters of G. It is proved that the group of units of ZG is a direct product of a finite group and a free abelian group F and the rank of F is determined. A formula for the orthogonal idempotents of QG is found.

In this note a number of compactifications are discussed within the class of artinian rings. In [1] the following was proved:Theorem. For an artinian ring R the following are equivalent:(1) R is equationally compact.(2) R+ ≃ B ⊕ P, where B is a finite group, P is a finite direct sum of Prüfer groups, and R · P = P · R = {0}.(3) R is a retract of a compact topological ring.
