We introduce and study the category of $p$-bifree biset functors for a fixed prime $p$, defined via bisets whose left and right stabilizers are $p'$-groups. This category naturally lies between the classical biset functors and the diagonal…

Let G be a finite group and let k be a field. Our purpose is to investigate the simple modules for the double Burnside ring kB(G,G). It turns out that they are evaluations at G of simple biset functors. For a fixed finite group H, we…

We classify simple modules over the Green biset functor of section Burnside rings.

We investigate the structure of the monomial Burnside biset functor over a field of characteristic zero, with particular focus on its restriction kernels. For each finite \( p \)-group \( G \), we give an explicit description of the…

This paper extends the notion of $B$-group to a relative context. For a finite group $K$ and a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic 0, the lattice of ideals of the Green biset functor $\mathbb{F}B_K$ obtained by shifting the Burnside…

We introduce the theory of biset functors defined on finite categories. Previously, biset functors have been defined on groups, and in that context they are closely related to Mackey functors. Standard examples on groups include…

Let $A$ be an abelian group such that $\mathrm{Hom}(G,A)$ is finite for all finite groups $G$, and let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field of characteristic zero containing roots of unity of all orders equal to finite element orders in $A$. In this…

In this paper, I give several characterizations of {\em rational biset functors over $p$-groups}, which are independent of the knowledge of genetic bases for $p$-groups. I also introduce a construction of new biset functors from known ones,…

Let R be a (unital) commutative ring, and G be a finite group with order invertible in R. We introduce new idempotents in the double Burnside algebra RB(G,G), indexed by conjugacy classes of minimal sections of G, i.e. pairs (T,S) of…

The classification of simple biset functors is known, but the evaluation of a simple biset functor at a finite group G may be zero. We investigate various situations where this happens, as well as cases where this does not occur. We also…

Let $\hat\Z_p$ be the ring of $p$-adic integers. We prove in the present paper that the category of polynomial functors from finitely generated free abelian groups to $\hat \Z_p$-modules of degree at most $p$ is equivalent to the category…

We determine the structure of the fibered biset functor sending a finite group $G$ to the complex vector space of complex valued class functions of $G$. Previously, it is studied as a biset functor by Bouc and as a $\mathbb…

We prove that, for any fields $k$ and $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $0$ and any finite group $T$, the category of modules over the shifted Green biset functor $(kR_{\mathbb{F}})_T$ is semisimple.

In this note I describe the structure of the biset functor $B^\times$ sending a $p$-group $P$ to the group of units of its Burnside ring $B(P)$. In particular, I show that $B^\times$ is a rational biset functor. It follows that if $P$ is a…

Let p be an odd prime number. In this paper, we show that the genome $\Gamma(P)$ of a finite $p$-group $P$, defined as the direct product of the genotypes of all rational irreducible representations of $P$, can be recovered from the first…

The theory of bisets has been very useful in progress towards settling the longstanding question of determining units for the Burnside ring. In 2006 Bouc used bisets to settle the question for $p$-groups. In this paper, we provide a…

We present three examples of Green biset functors for which their simple modules can be parametrized. These are particular cases of a conjecture by Serge Bouc classifying the simple modules over a Green biset functor A, that generalizes the…

Let G be a finite group and K be a field of characteristic zero. Our purpose is to investigate the ideals of the slice Burnside functor K{\Xi}. It turns out that they are the subfunctors F of K{\Xi} such that for any finite group G, the…

This note has two purposes: First, to present a counterexample to a conjecture parametrizing the simple modules over Green biset functors, appearing in an author's previous article. This parametrization fails for the monomial Burnside ring…

We generalize Bouc's construction of orthogonal idempotents in the double Burnside algebra to the setting of the double $\mathbb{C}^\times$-fibered Burnside algebra. This yields a structural decomposition of the evaluations of…
