Very simple representations: variations on a theme of Clifford

Abstract

We discuss a certain class of absolutely irreducible group representations that behave nicely under the restriction to normal subgroups and subalgebras. These representations proved to be useful for the construction of abelian varieties with small endomorphism rings.
