In this paper, we introduce the notion of excellent extensions of rings. Let Γ be an excellent extension of an Artin algebra Λ, we prove that Λ satisfies the Gorenstein symmetry conjecture (resp., finitistic dimension conjecture, Auslander–Gorenstein conjecture, Nakayama conjecture) if and only if so does Γ. As a special case of excellent extensions, when G is a finite group whose order is invertible in Λ acting on Λ and Λ is G-stable, we prove that if the skew group algebra ΛG satisfies strong Nakayama conjecture (resp., generalized Nakayama conjecture), then so does Λ.

Over a field of characteristic p the group algebra of a finite group has a non-trivial radical if and only if the order of the group is divisible by the prime p. It would be of interest to determine the powers of the radical in the non-semi-simple case [2, p. 61]. In the particular case of p-groups the solution to the problem is known through the work of Jennings [6]. We here consider the special case of group algebras whose radicals have square zero and we relate this condition to the structure of the group itself.

Throughout this paper, S will be a ring (not necessarily commutative) with an identity element ls ≠ 0s. We shall use R to denote a second ring, and ϕ: S→ R will be a fixed ring homomorphism for which ϕ1S = 1R.In (7), Higman generalized the Casimir operator of classical theory and used his generalization to characterize relatively projective and injective modules. As a special case, he obtained a theorem which contains results of Eckmann (3) and of Higman himself (5), and which also includes Gaschütz's generalization (4) of Maschke's theorem. (For a discussion of some of the developments of Maschke's idea of averaging over a finite group, we refer the reader to (2, Chapter IX).) In the present paper, we define the Casimir operator of a family of S-homomorphisms of one R-module into another, and we again use this operator to characterize relatively projective and injective modules.

Abstract Let $R$ be the skew group algebra of a finite group acting on the path algebra of a quiver. This article develops both theoretical and practical methods to do computations in the Morita-reduced algebra associated to $R$. Reiten and Riedtmann proved that there exists an idempotent $e$ of $R$ such that the algebra $eRe$ is both Morita equivalent to $R$ and isomorphic to the path algebra of some quiver, which was described by Demonet. This article gives explicit formulas for the decomposition of any element of $eRe$ as a linear combination of paths in the quiver described by Demonet. This is done by expressing appropriate compositions and pairings in a suitable monoidal category, which takes into account the representation theory of the finite group.

In this note relations between the structure of a finite group G and ringtheoretical properties of the group algebra FG over a field F with characteristic p > 0 are investigated. Denoting by J(R) the Jacobson radical and by Z(R) the centre of the ring R, our aim is to prove the following theorem generalizing results of Wallace [10] and Spiegel [9]:Theorem. Let G be a finite group and let F be an arbitrary field of characteristic p > 0. Denoting by BL the principal block ideal of the group algebra FG the following statements are equivalent:(i) J(B1) ≤ Z(B1)(ii) J(B1)is commutative,(iii) G is p-nilpotent with abelian Sylowp-subgroups.

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.

For a finite group G, let cd(G) be the set of irreducible complex character degrees of G forgetting multiplicities and X1(G) be the set of all irreducible complex character degrees of G counting multiplicities. Suppose that p is a prime number. We prove that if G is a finite group such that |G| = |PGL(2,p) |, p ? cd(G) and max(cd(G)) = p+1, then G ? PGL(2,p), SL(2, p) or PSL(2,p) x A, where A is a cyclic group of order (2, p-1). Also, we show that if G is a finite group with X1(G) = X1(PGL(2,pn)), then G ? PGL(2, pn). In particular, this implies that PGL(2, pn) is uniquely determined by the structure of its complex group algebra.

AbstractG. Navarro raised the question of when two vertices of two indecomposable modules over a finite group algebra generate a Sylow p-subgroup. The present note provides a sufficient criterion for this to happen. This generalises a result by Navarro for simple modules over finite p-solvable groups, which is the main motivation for this note.

The famous finitistic dimension conjecture says that every finite-dimensional 𝕂-algebra over a field 𝕂 should have finite finitistic dimension. This conjecture is equivalent to the following statement: If B is a subalgebra of a finite-dimensional 𝕂-algebra A such that the radical of B is a left ideal in A, and if A has finite finitistic dimension, then B has finite finitistic dimension. In the paper, we shall work with a more general setting of Artin algebras. Let B be a subalgebra of an Artin algebra A such that the radical of B is a left ideal in A. (1) If the category of all finitely generated (A, B)-projective A-modules is closed under taking A-syzygies, then fin.dim (B) ≤ fin.dim (A) + fin.dim (BA) + 3, where fin.dim (A) denotes the finitistic dimension of A, and where fin.dim (BA) stands for the supremum of the projective dimensions of those direct summands of BA that have finite projective dimension. (2) If the extension B ⊆ A is n-hereditary for a non-negative integer n, then gl.dim (A) ≤ gl.dim (B) + n. Moreover, we show that the finitistic dimension of the trivially twisted extension of two algebras of finite finitistic dimension is again finite. Also, a new formulation of the finitistic dimension conjecture in terms of relative homological dimension is given. Our approach in this paper is completely different from the one in our earlier papers.

Let K be a field of characteristic p ≠ 2,3 and let G be a finite group. Necessary and sufficient conditions for δ3(U(KG)) = 1, where U(KG) is the unit group of the group algebra KG, are obtained.
