AbstractAssume k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p and G is a finite group. If P is a p-subgroup of G such that G = PCG(P), and if H is a normal subgroup of G with P ≤ H, then the number of H-cliques of irreducible k[G]-modules is the same as the number of H/P-cliques of irreducible k[G/P]-modules.

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.

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.

In the theory of modular representations of a finite group G in an algebraically closed field Ω of characteristic p, Brauer has proved a useful reduction theorem for blocks [2, §§11, 12], [5, (88.8)], which can be reformulated as follows:THEOREM 1 (Brauer). Let P bean arbitraryp-subgroup of G; let N = NG(P) and W = PCG(P).

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]).

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 G be a finite group and, for a prime p, let S be a Sylow p-subgroup of G. A character χ of G is called {\mathrm{Syl}_{p}}-regular if the restriction of χ to S is the character of the regular representation of S. If, in addition, χ vanishes at all elements of order divisible by p, χ is said to be Steinberg-like. For every finite simple group G, we determine all primes p for which G admits a Steinberg-like character, except for alternating groups in characteristic 2. Moreover, we determine all primes for which G has a projective FG-module of dimension {\lvert S\rvert}, where F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p.

AbstractLet F be an algebraically closed field, G be a finite group and H be a subgroup of G. We answer several questions about the centralizer algebra FGH. Among these, we provide examples to show that•the centre Z(FGH) can be larger than the F-algebra generated by Z(FG) and Z(FH),•FGH can have primitive central idempotents that are not of the form ef, where e and f are primitive central idempotents of FG and FH respectively,•it is not always true that the simple FGH-modules are the same as the non-zero FGH-modules HomFH(S, T ↓ H), where S and T are simple FH and FG-modules, respectively.

For [Formula: see text] a finite group and [Formula: see text] a [Formula: see text]-space on which a normal subgroup [Formula: see text] acts trivially, we show that the [Formula: see text]-equivariant [Formula: see text]-theory of [Formula: see text] decomposes as a direct sum of twisted equivariant [Formula: see text]-theories of [Formula: see text] parametrized by the orbits of the conjugation action of [Formula: see text] on the irreducible representations of [Formula: see text]. The twists are group 2-cocycles which encode the obstruction of lifting an irreducible representation of [Formula: see text] to the subgroup of [Formula: see text] which fixes the isomorphism class of the irreducible representation.

Kaplansky’s famous conjectures about generalizing results from groups to Hopf al-gebras inspired many mathematicians to try to find solusions for them. Recently, Cohen and Westreich in [8] and [10] have generalized the concepts of nilpotency and solvability of groups to Hopf algebras under certain conditions and proved interesting results. In this article, we follow their work and give a detailed example by considering a finite group G and an algebraically closed field K. In more details, we construct the group Hopf algebra H = KG and examine its properties to see what of the properties of the original finite group can be carried out in the case of H.

Abstract We rule out a certain nine-dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field to be the basic algebra of a block of a finite group, thereby completing the classification of basic algebras of dimension at most 12 of blocks of finite group algebras.
