Let G be a finite group (with neutral element e) which operates trivially on the multiplicative group R* of a commutative ring R (with identity 1). Let H2(G, R*) denote the second cohomology group of G with respect to the trivial G-module R*. With every represented by the central factor system we associate the so called twisted group algebra (R, G, f) (see [3, V, 23.7] for the definition). (R, G, f) is determined by f up to R-algebra isomorphism. In this note we shall describe its representations in the case R is an algebraically closed field C of characteristic zero and G is an extra-special p-group P.

Let G be a finite group with neutral element e which operates trivially on the multiplicative group R* of a commutative ring with identity 1. Let H2(G, R*) = Z2(G, R*)/B2(G, R*) denote the second cohomology group of G with respect to the trivial G-module R*. With every factor system (2-cocycle) f ∈ Z2(G, R*) we associate the so called (central) twisted group algebra (R, G, f) of G over R (see [4, Chapter V, 23.7] or [13, §4] for a definition). If f is cohomologous to f', then the R-algebras (R, G, f) and (R, G, f′) are isomorphic. Hence, up to R-algebra isomorphism, (R, G, f) is determined by the cohomology class f∈H2(G, R*) determined by f. If R = k is a field of characteristic not dividing the order |G| of G, then a computation of the discriminant of (k, G, f) shows that (k, G, f) is semisimple (see [13, 4.2]).

The characters of the representations of a finite group G over a field K of characteristic zero generate a ring oK(G) of functions on G, the K-character ring of G, which is readily seen to be Zϕ1 + . . . + Zϕn, where Z is the ring of rational integers and ϕ1, . . . , ϕn are the characters of the different irreducible representations of G over K. The theorem that every irreducible representation of G over an algebraically closed field Ω of characteristic zero is equivalent to a representation of G over the subfield of Ω which is generated by the g0th roots of unity (g0 the exponent of G) was proved by Brauer (4) via the theorems that(1) OΩ(G) is additively generated by the induced characters of representations of elementary subgroups of G, and(2) the irreducible representations over 12 of any elementary group are induced by one-dimensional subgroup representations (3).

AbstractLet X be a smooth projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field k. Nori constructed a category of vector bundles on X, called essentially finite vector bundles, which is reminiscent of the category of representations of the fundamental group (in characteristic zero). In fact, this category is equivalent to the category of representations of a pro-finite group scheme which controls all finite torsors. We show that essentially finite vector bundles coincide with those which become trivial after being pulled back by some proper and surjective morphism to X.

AbstractLet X be projective variety over an algebraically closed field k and G be a finite group with g.c.d.(char(k), |G|) = 1. We prove that any representations of G on a coherent sheaf, ρ : G → End(ℰ), has a natural decomposition ℰ ≃ ⊕ V ⊗k ℱV, where G acts trivially on ℱV and the sum run over all irreducible representations of G over k.

In [8] I. N. Herstein conjectured that all the finite odd order sub-groups of the multiplicative group in a division ring are cyclic. This conjecture was proved false in general by S. A. Amitsur in [1]. In his paper Amitsur classifies all finite groups which can appear as a multiplicative subgroup of a division ring. Let D be a division ring with prime field k and let G be a finite group isomorphic to a multiplicative subgroup of D.

We define the cover of an RG-module V to consist of an RG lattice Ṽ and a homomorphism π : Ṽ→ V such that π induces an isomorphism on Ext*RG(M, —) for any RG-lattice M. Here G is a finite group and, for simplicity in this introduction, R is a complete discrete valuation ring of characteristic zero with prime element p and perfect valuation class field. Let pn(G) be the highest power of p that divides |G| and, given an RG-lattice M, let pn(M) be the smallest power of p such that pn(M) idM : M→M factors through a projective lattice: n(M)≦n(G).

Let G be a finite group of order g, andbe an absolutely irreducible representation of degree fμ over a field of characteristic zero. As is well known, by using Schur's lemma (1), we can prove the following orthogonality relations for the coefficients :1It is easy to conclude from (1) the following orthogonality relations for characters:whereand is 1 or 0 according as t and s are conjugate in G or not, and n(t) is the order of the normalize of t.

AbstractLet k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, and G a finite group. Let M be an indecomposable kG-module with vertex V and source X, and let P be a Sylow p-subgroup of G containing V. Theorem: If dimkX is prime to p and if NG(V) is p-solvable, then the p-part of dimkM equals [P:V]; dimkX is prime to p if V is cyclic.

AbstractLet be a finite group scheme over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic char(k) = p ≥ 3. In generalisation of the familiar notion from the modular representation theory of finite groups, we define the p-rank rkp() of and determine the structure of those group schemes of p-rank 1, whose linearly reductive radical is trivial. The most difficult case concerns infinitesimal groups of height 1, which correspond to restricted Lie algebras. Our results show that group schemes of p-rank ≤ 1 are closely related to those being of finite or domestic representation type.
