Let G be a finite p-group which does not contain a rank two elementary abelian p-group as a direct factor. Then the ideal of essential classes in the mod-p cohomology ring of G is a Cohen-Macaulay module whose Krull dimension is the p-rank…
In this paper we determine explicitly the mod-p essential cohomology ideals of the p-groups with a cyclic subgroup of index p.
The structure of the BP<n>-cohomology of elementary abelian p-groups is studied, obtaining a presentation expressed in terms of BP-cohomology and mod-p singular cohomology, using the Milnor derivations. The arguments are based on a result…
We give a lower bound for the exponent of certain elements in the integral cohomology of the total spaces of principal BC-bundles for C a finite cyclic group. As applications we give a proof of the theorem of A. Adem and H.-W. Henn that a…
We compute the equivariant bordism of free oriented $(\mathbb{Z}/p)^n$-manifolds as a module over $\Omega_*^{SO}$, when $p$ is an odd prime. We show, among others, that this module is canonically isomorphic to a direct sum of suspensions of…
What are all rings $R$ for which $R^*$ (the group of invertible elements of $R$ under multiplication) is an elementary abelian $p$-group? We answer this question for finite-dimensional commutative $k$-algebras, finite commutative rings,…
We describe a new approach for classifying conjugacy classes of elementary abelian subgroups in simple algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field, and understanding the normaliser and centraliser structure of these. For toral…
We study when kernels of inflation maps associated to extraspecial p-groups in stable group cohomology are generated by their degree two components. This turns out to be true if the prime is large enough compared to the rank of the…
The modular group algebra of an elementary abelian p-group is isomorphic to the restricted enveloping algebra of commutative restricted Lie algebra. The different ways of regarding this algebra result in different Hopf algebra structures…
An ideal in a polynomial ring encodes a system of linear partial differential equations with constant coefficients. Primary decomposition organizes the solutions to the PDE. This paper develops a novel structure theory for primary ideals in…
We give a categorical description of all abelian varieties with commutative endomorphism ring over a finite field with $q=p^a$ elements in a fixed isogeny class in terms of pairs consisting of a fractional $\mathbb Z[\pi,q/\pi]$-ideal and a…
Guo and the second author have shown that the closure $[I]$ in the Drury-Arveson space of a homogeneous principal ideal $I$ in $\mathbb{C}[z_1,...,z_n]$ is essentially normal. In this note, the authors extend this result to the closure of…
The mod-p cohomology ring of a non-trivial finite p-group is an infinite dimensional, finitely presented graded unital algebra over the field with p elements, with generators in positive degrees. We describe an effective algorithm to test…
In previous work (Coulembier--Flake 2024), the authors conjectured that the tensor product of an arbitrary finite-dimensional modular representation of an elementary abelian $p$-group with the biggest non-projective restricted Steinberg…
We initiate the study of subgroups $H$ of the general linear group $GL_{\binom{n}{m}}(R)$ over a commutative ring $R$ that contain the $m$-th exterior power of an elementary group $\bigwedge^mE_n(R)$. Each such group $H$ corresponds to a…
We describe bialgebras of lower-indexed algebraic Steenrod operations over the field with p elements, p an odd prime. These go beyond the operations that can act nontrivially in topology, and their duals are closely related to algebras of…
The geometric and algebraic theory of monomial ideals and multigraded modules is initiated over real-exponent polynomial rings and, more generally, monoid algebras for real polyhedral cones. The main results include the generalization of…
We give a lower bound on the Hilbert series of the exterior algebra modulo a principal ideal generated by a generic form of odd degree and disprove a conjecture by Moreno-Soc\'ias and Snellman. We also show that the lower bound is equal to…
In this paper, we prove that the endomorphism rings End A and End A' of periodic infinite Abelian groups A and A' are elementarily equivalent if and only if the endomorphism rings of their p-components are elementarily equivalent for all…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. For a compact Lie group $G$ and an elementary abelian $p$-group $A$ of $G$, one may define the Weyl group $W_A$ of $A$ in a similar fashion as defining the Weyl group of a maximal torus, such that $W_A$ acts on…
