In a step towards the classification of endotrivial modules for quasi-simple groups, we investigate endotrivial modules for the sporadic simple groups and their covers. A main outcome of our study is the existence of torsion endotrivial…
Motivated by a recent result of Robinson showing that simple endotrivial modules essentially come from quasi-simple groups we classify such modules for finite special linear and unitary groups as well as for exceptional groups of Lie type.…
We determine the group of endotrivial modules (as an abstract group) for $G$ a (quasi)simple group of sporadic type, extending previous results in the literature. In many sporadic cases we directly construct the subgroup of trivial-source…
We show that when G is a finite group which contains an elementary Abelian subgroup of order p^2 and k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, then the study of simple endotrivial kG-modules which are not monomial may be…
We finish off the classification of the endo-trivial modules of finite groups with Sylow $2$-subgroups isomorphic to a semi-dihedral $2$-group started by Carlson, Mazza and Th\'evenaz in their article "Endotrivial modules over groups with…
It is well known that if G is a finite group then the group of endotrivial modules is finitely generated. In this paper we investigate endotrivial modules over arbitrary finite group schemes. Our results can be applied to computing the…
It is well known that if G is a finite group then the group of endotrivial modules is finitely generated. In this paper we prove that for an arbitrary finite group scheme G, and for any fixed integer n > 0, there are only finitely many…
We investigate classifications of quasitrivial semigroups defined by certain equivalence relations. The subclass of quasitrivial semigroups that preserve a given total ordering is also investigated. In the special case of finite semigroups,…
We investigate the class of quasitrivial semigroups and provide various characterizations of the subclass of quasitrivial and commutative semigroups as well as the subclass of quasitrivial and order-preserving semigroups. We also determine…
In this paper, we classify finite categories with two objects such that one of the endomorphism monoids is a group. We prove that having a group on one side affects the structure of the other endomorphism monoid, and we prove that it is…
In this paper we give a small review of some recent results of elementary equivalence of linear and algebraic groups and our last new results of elementary equivalence of categories of modules, endomorphism rings of modules, lattices of…
This paper is a major step in the classification of endotrivial modules over p-groups. Let G be a finite p-group and k be a field of characteristic p. A kG-module M is an endo-trivial module if {\End_k(M)\cong k\oplus F} as kG-modules,…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of abelian endoregular modules as those modules whose endomorphism rings are abelian von Neumann regular. We characterize an abelian endoregular module $M$ in terms of its $M$-generated submodules. We…
We determine the characters of the simple composition factors and the submodule lattices of certain Weyl modules for classical groups. The results have several applications. The simple modules arise in the study of incidence systems in…
This is the second one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with almost simple unitary groups.
The object of this paper is to examine finite solvable groups whose integral group rings have only trivial central units.
The authors investigate the structure of quasi-o-minimal groups. Among other results, they show that quasi-o-minimal groups are abelian, that quasi-o-minimal densely ordered archimedian groups are divisible, and that every divisible…
The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of localization, which comes from homotopy theory, in the context of finite simple groups. We give an easy criterion for a finite simple group to be a localization of some simple subgroup…
We show that every quasitrivial n-ary semigroup is reducible to a binary semigroup, and we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for such a reduction to be unique. These results are then refined in the case of symmetric n-ary…
We classify localising subcategories of the stable module category of a finite group that are closed under tensor product with simple (or, equivalently all) modules. One application is a proof of the telescope conjecture in this context.…
