Let $G$ be a group and $H \le K \le G$. We say that $H$ is $c$-embedded in $G$ with respect to $K$ if there is a subgroup $B$ of $G$ such that $G = HB$ and $H \cap B \le Z(K)$. Given a finite group $G$, a prime number $p$ and a Sylow…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p > 0$. For $G$ an elementary abelian $p$-group, there exist collections of permutation module such that if $C^*$ is any exact bounded complex whose terms are sums of copies of modules from the…
In this paper, by assuming a faithful action of a finite flat $\mathbb{Z}_p$-algebra $\mathscr{R}$ on a $p$-divisible group $\mathcal{G}$ defined over the ring of $p$-adic integers $\mathscr{O}_K$, we construct a category of new…
Building on previous work by Caicedo and the second author, we develop a method that decides the existence of units of finite order in blocks of $\mathbb{Z}_p G$ of defect 1. This allows us to prove that if $p$ is a prime and $G$ is a…
Suppose that all nontrivial subsections of a $p$-block $B$ are conjugate (where $p$ is a prime). By using the classification of the finite simple groups, we prove that the defect groups of $B$ are either extraspecial of order $p^3$ with $p…
We show that the subgroup of the Picard group of a $p$-block of a finite group given by bimodules with endopermutation sources modulo the automorphism group of a source algebra is determined locally in terms of the fusion system on a defect…
Let G be a finite group, and let Omega:={t\in G\mid t^2=1}. Then Omega is a G-set under conjugation. Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. It is shown that each projective indecomposable summand of the G-permutation…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p$. Let $kGe$ be a block of a group algebra of a finite group $G$, with normal defect group $P$ and abelian $p'$ inertial quotient $L$. Then we show that $kGe$ is a matrix…
Let G be a finite group with cyclic Sylow p-subgroup, and let k be a field of characteristic p. Then H^*(BG;k) and H_*(\Omega BG\phat;k) are A_{\infty} algebras whose structure we determine up to quasi-isomorphism.
A (semi)brick over an algebra $A$ is a module $S$ such that the endomorphism ring $\operatorname{\mathsf{End}}_A(S)$ is a (product of) division algebra. For each Dynkin diagram $\Delta$, there is a bijection from the Coxeter group $W$ of…
We prove, for certain pairs G,G of finite groups of Lie type, that the p-fusion systems for G and G' are equivalent. In other words, there is an isomorphism between a Sylow p-subgroup of G and one of G' which preserves p-fusion. This…
We compare lower defect groups associated with $p$-regular classes and vertices of simple modules for a block of a finite group algebra. We show that lower defect groups are contained in vertices of simple modules after suitable reordering.…
We study induced modules of nonzero central charge with arbitrary multiplicities over affine Lie algebras. For a given pseudo parabolic subalgebra ${\mathcal P}$ of an affine Lie algebra ${\mathfrak G}$, our main result establishes the…
As a sequel of \cite{Ou}, in this shot note, we investigate block basis for coinvariants of finite modular pseudo-reflection groups. We are particularly interested in the case where $ G $ is a subgroup of the parabolic subgroups of $…
Let H be a finite-dimensional quasibialgebra. We show that H is a quasi-Hopf algebra if and only if the category of its finite-dimensional left modules is rigid if and only if a structure theorem for Hopf modules over H holds. We also show…
This series of papers is a contribution to the program of classifying $p$-blocks of finite groups up to source algebra equivalence, starting with the case of cyclic blocks. To any $p$-block $\mathbf{B}$ of a finite group with cyclic defect…
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…
Using the wonderful compactification of a semisimple adjoint affine algebraic group G defined over an algebraically closed field k of arbitrary characteristic, we construct a natural compactification Y of the G-character variety of any…
We study three related homological properties of modules in the BGG category O for basic classical Lie superalgebras, with specific focus on the general linear superalgebra. These are the projective dimension, associated variety and…
If G is a finite group and p is a prime number, we investigate the relationship between the p-modular decomposition numbers of characters of height zero in the principal p-block of G and the p-local structure of G.
