Abstract

Theorem. Let π\pi be a finite group of order nn, RR be a Dedekind domain satisfying that (i) \fncharR=0\fn{char}R=0, (ii) every prime divisor of nn is not invertible in RR, and (iii) pp is unramified in RR for any prime divisor pp of nn. Then all the flabby (resp.\ coflabby) RπR\pi-lattices are invertible if and only if all the Sylow subgroups of π\pi are cyclic. The above theorem was proved by Endo and Miyata when R=ZR=\bm{Z} \cite[Theorem 1.5]{EM}. As applications of this theorem, we give a short proof and a partial generalization of a result of Torrecillas and Weigel \cite[Theorem A]{TW}, which was proved using cohomological Mackey functors.
