A partition of a positive integer $n$ is defined as a non-increasing sequence $P = [y_0, y_1, ..., y_m]$ of positive integers which sum to $n$, where the $y_i$ are called the $parts$ of the partition. A Young diagram is a visual…

It is proved that a commutative ring is clean if and only if it is Gelfand with a totally disconnected maximal spectrum. Commutative rings for which each indecomposable module has a local endomorphism ring are studied. These rings are clean…

We concern the VIGRE's conjecture; namely the complexity of a Specht module is the p-weight of the corresponding partition if and only if the partition is not p by p. In abelian defect case, we calculate the cohomological variety of the…

For a Specht module S^\lambda for the symmetric group \Sigma_d, the cohomology H^i(\Sigma_d, S^\lambda) is known only in degree i=0. We give a combinatorial criterion equivalent to the nonvanishing of the degree i=1 cohomology, valid in odd…

We study the reduced Lefschetz module of the complex of p-radical and p-centric subgroups. We assume that the underlying group G has parabolic characteristic p and the centralizer of a certain noncentral p-element has a component with…

Let $S_\lambda$ denote the Specht module defined by Dipper and James for the Iwahori-Hecke algebra $\mathscr{H}_n$ of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. When $e=2$ we determine the decomposability of all Specht modules corresponding to…

The decomposition matrix of a finite group in prime characteristic p records the multiplicities of its p-modular irreducible representations as composition factors of the reductions modulo p of its irreducible representations in…

We give a new proof of the fact that any finite quadratic module can be decomposed into indecomposable ones. For any indecomposable finite quadratic module, we construct a lattice, and a positive definite lattice, both of which are of the…

We obtain alternative explicit Specht filtrations for the induced and the restricted Specht modules in the Hecke algebra of the symmetric group (defined over the ring $A=\mathbb Z[q^{1/2},q^{-1/2}]$ where $q$ is an indeterminate) using…

Describing the decomposition of Foulkes module $F_b^a$ into irreducible Specht modules is an open problem for $a,b > 3$. In this article we provide a new approach for the Generalized Foulkes module $F_{\nu}^a$ (with arbitrary partition…

Using purely combinatorial methods we calculate the first degree cohomology of Specht modules indexed by two part partitions over fields of characteristic $p\ge 3$. These combinatorial methods also allow us to obtain an explicit description…

Let $K$ be an infinite field of characteristic $p>0$ and let $\lambda, \mu$ be partitions of $n$, where $\lambda=(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_n)$ and $\mu=(\mu_1,..,\mu_n)$. By $S^{\lambda}$ we denote the Specht module corresponding to $\lambda$…

We determine the partitions $\lambda$ for which the corresponding induced module (or Schur module in the language of Buchsbaum et. al., [1]) $\nabla(\lambda)$ is injective in the category of polynomial modules for a general linear group…

This paper gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the image of the Specht module under the inverse Schur functor to be isomorphic to the dual Weyl module in characteristic 2, and gives an elementary proof that this isomorphism holds…

The set D of distinct signed degrees of the vertices in a signed graph G is called its signed degree set. In this paper, we prove that every non-empty set of positive (negative) integers is the signed degree set of some connected signed…

We study the representations of the infinite symmetric group induced from the identity representations of Young subgroups. It turns out that such induced representations can be either of type~I or of type~II. Each Young subgroup corresponds…

We aim to construct an element satisfying Hemmer's combinatorial criterion for $H^1(\mathfrak{S}_n, S^\lambda)$ to be non-vanishing. In the process, we discover an unexpected and surprising link between the combinatorial theory of integral…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\rho:G \to \GL(V)$ a finite dimensional representation of $G$. We say that $\rho$ is unisingular if $\det(1-\rho(g)) = 0$ for all $g \in G$. Building on previous work in \cite{cullinan}, we consider the…

Let G be a semisimple, simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We observe that the tensor product of the Steinberg module with a minuscule module is always indecomposable tilting.…

We give an explicit formula for the decomposition of the tensor product of any two indecomposable non-projective modules for the symmetric group algebra $F \mathfrak{S}_p$ modulo projective modules. In particular, we show that the tensor…
