Consider an automorphism group of a finite-dimensional algebra. S. Halperin conjectured that the unity component of this group is solvable if the algebra is a complete intersection. The solvability criterion recently obtained by M. Schulze…
We give the first positive formulas for the weights of every simple highest weight module $L(\lambda)$ over an arbitrary Kac-Moody algebra. Under a mild condition on the highest weight, we also express the weights of $L(\lambda)$ as an…
In this paper we study the ratio between the number of $p$-elements and the order of a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a finite group $G$. As well known, this ratio is a positive integer and we conjecture that, for every group $G$, it is at least the…
We study the possible weights of an irreducible two-dimensional mod p representation of the absolute Galois group of F which is modular in the sense of that it comes from an automorphic form on a definite quaternion algebra with centre F…
This paper is concerned with the representation theory of finite groups. According to Robinson, the truth of certain variants of Alperin's weight conjecture on the $p$-blocks of a finite group would imply some arithmetical conditions on the…
Assume $G$ is a solvable group whose elementary abelian sections are all finite. Suppose, further, that $p$ is a prime such that $G$ fails to contain any subgroups isomorphic to $C_{p^\infty}$. We show that if $G$ is nilpotent, then the…
G. Navarro raised the question under what circumstancs two vertices of two indecomposable modules over a finite group algebra generate a Sylow $p$-subgroup. The present note provides a sufficient criterion for when this is the case. This…
Let $G$ denote a possibly discrete topological group admitting an open subgroup $I$ which is pro-$p$. If $H$ denotes the corresponding Hecke algebra over a field $k$ of characteristic $p$ then we study the adjunction between $H$-modules and…
We prove the weight elimination direction of the Serre weight conjectures as formulated by Herzig for forms of $U(n)$ which are compact at infinity and split at places dividing $p$ in generic situations. That is, we show that all modular…
We classify all simple bounded highest weight modules of a basic classical Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak g$. In particular, our classification leads to the classification of the simple weight modules with finite weight multiplicities over all…
Let k(B_0) and l(B_0) respectively denote the number of ordinary and p-Brauer irreducible characters in the principal block B_0 of a finite group G. We prove that, if k(B_0)-l(B_0)=1, then l(B_0)\geq p-1 or else p=11 and l(B_0)=9. This…
Let $G$ be the unramified unitary group $U(2, 1)(E/F)$ over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of odd residue characteristic $p$. In this paper, for any supersingular representation of $G$ that contains the Steinberg weight, we prove its…
We address a question posed by Ono, prove a general result for powers of an arbitrary prime, and provide an explanation for the appearance of higher congruence moduli for certain small primes. One of our results coincides with a recent…
In this article we prove a version of Kolyvagin's conjecture for modular forms at non-ordinary primes. In particular, we generalize the work of Wang on a converse to a higher weight Gross-Zagier-Kolyvagin theorem in order to prove the…
The Modular Isomorphism Problem asks if an isomorphism of group algebras of two finite p-groups G and H over a field of characteristic p, implies an isomorhism of the groups G and H. We survey the history of the problem, explain strategies…
By the reduction theorems of Navarro--Tiep and Sp\"ath, a way to prove the Alperin weight conjecture and its blockwise version is to verify the co-called inductive Alperin weight condition and inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition…
In this paper, we examine the class of cofibrant modules over a group algebra $kG$, that were defined by Benson in [2]. We show that this class is always the left-hand side of a complete hereditary cotorsion pair in the category of…
We prove that for every Bushnell-Kutzko type that satisfies a certain rigidity assumption, the equivalence of categories between the corresponding Bernstein component and the category of modules for the Hecke algebra of the type induces a…
In a recent paper, Gabriel Navarro and Pham Huu Tiep show that the so-called Alperin Weight Conjecture can be verified via the Classification of the Finite Simple Groups, provided any simple group fulfills a very precise list of conditions.…
Let G be a finite group and let p be a prime. A module for G over a field of characteristic p is called algebraic if it satisfies a polynomial, with addition and multiplication given by direct sum and tensor product. In some sense, having…
