We show that the signed $p$-Kostka numbers depend just on $p$-Kostka numbers and the multiplicities of projective indecomposable modules in certain signed Young permutation modules. We then examine the signed $p$-Kostka number…

We study the multiplicities of Young modules as direct summands of permutation modules on cosets of Young subgroups. Such multiplicities have become known as the p-Kostka numbers. We classify the indecomposable Young permutation modules,…

Recently Donkin defined signed Young modules as a simultaneous generalization of Young and twisted Young modules for the symmetric group. We show that in odd characteristic, if a Specht module $S^\lambda$ is irreducible, then $S^\lambda$ is…

By a result of Hemmer, every simple Specht module of a finite symmetric group over a field of odd characteristic is a signed Young module. While Specht modules are parametrized by partitions, indecomposable signed Young modules are…

The main result of this paper is an application of the topology of the space $Q(X)$ to obtain results for the cohomology of the symmetric group on $d$ letters, $\Sigma_d$, with `twisted' coefficients in various choices of Young modules and…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic two, and let $\lambda$ be a two-part partition of some natural number $r$. Denote the permutation module corresponding to the (maximal) Young subgroup $\Sigma_\lambda$ in $\Sigma_r$ by $M^\lambda$. We…

We give a new (inductive) proof of the classical Frobenius--Young correspondence between irreducible complex representations of the symmetric group and Young diagrams, using the new approach, suggested in \cite{OV, VO}, to determining this…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $n$ be a natural number. In this article we determine the irreducible constituents of the permutation module induced by the action of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ on the cosets of a Sylow $p$-subgroup…

The signed permutation modules are a simultaneous generalization of the ordinary permutation modules and the twisted permutation modules of the symmetric group. In a recent paper Dave Benson and Peter Symonds defined a new invariant…

This is an introduction to the group algebras of the symmetric groups, written for a quarter-long graduate course. After recalling the definition of group algebras (and monoid algebras) in general, as well as basic properties of…

Let p be a prime number. We study the dimensions of Brauer constructions of Young and Young permutation modules with respect to p-subgroups of the symmetric groups. They depend only on partitions labelling the modules and the orbits of the…

For a prime number p, we construct a generating set for the ring of invariants for the p+1 dimensional indecomposable modular representation of a cyclic group of order p^2. We then use the constructed invariants to describe the…

Let T be an involution of the finite dimensional complex reductive Lie algebra g and g=k+p be the associated Cartan decomposition. Denote by K the adjoint group of k. The K-module p is the union of the subsets p^{(m)}={x | dim K.x =m},…

The endomorphism algebras of the permutation modules for transitive permutation groups, known as Hecke algebras, are fundamental objects in representation theory. While group algebras are known to be symmetric over any field, it is natural…
