Abstract

Let GG be a finite group such that SL(n,q)GGL(n,q)\text{SL}(n,q)\subseteq G \subseteq \text{GL}(n,q) and ZZ be a central subgroup of GG. In this paper we determine the group T(G/Z)T(G/Z) consisting of the equivalence classes of endotrivial k(G/Z)k(G/Z)-modules where kk is an algebraically closed field of characteristic pp such that pp does not divide qq. The results in this paper complete the classification of endotrivial modules for all finite groups of Lie Type AA, initiated earlier by the authors.
