Let $\mathbf{k}$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional $\mathbf{k}$-algebra and let $V$ be a $\Lambda$-module with stable endomorphism ring isomorphic to $\mathbf{k}$. If…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated abelian-by-finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p\ge 0$. The Euler class $[k_G]$ of $G$ over $k$ is the class of the trivial $kG$-module in the Grothendieck group $G_0(kG)$. We show that $[k_G]$…
For $G$ a finite group, $k$ a field of prime characteristic $p$, and $S$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$, the Sylow permutation module $\mathrm{Ind}^G_S(k)$ plays a role in diverse facets of representation theory and group theory, ranging from…
Given a general finite group $G$, there are various finite categories whose cohomology theories are of great interests. Recently Balmer and Grodal gave some new characterizations of the groups of endotrivial modules, via \v{C}ech cohomology…
In "Frobenius Categories versus Brauer Blocks", Progress in Math. 274, we have introduced the Frobenius categories F over a finite p-group P, and we have associated to F - suitably endowed with some central k*-extensions - a "Grothendieck…
For each endotrivial complex arising from Bredon homology of a representation sphere, we construct $p$-local quasi-isomorphisms, called forerunners, enabling us to extend Balmer--Gallauer's results in arXiv:2307.04398 Part II concerning the…
In this paper, we investigate the group of endotrivial modules for certain $p$-groups. Such groups were already been computed by Carlson-Th\'evenaz using the theory of support varieties; however, we provide novel homotopical proofs of their…
The stable category of modules over the algebra of a finite group with coefficients in a field is a compactly generated tensor triangulated category, that has been studied extensively in representation theory. In this paper, we provide a…
Let $\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{k} \oplus \mathfrak{p}$ be the Cartan decomposition of the complexified Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{sl}(3,\mathbb{C})$ of the group $G=SU(2,1)$. Let $K=S(U(2) \times U(1))$; so $K$ is a maximal compact…
Suppose that $Q$ is a finite quiver and $G\subseteq \Aut(Q)$ is a finite group, $k$ is an algebraic closed field whose characteristic does not divide the order of $G$. For any algebra $\Lambda=kQ/{\mathcal {I}}$, $\mathcal {I}$ is an…
We consider a generalization $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}(R)$ of the standard Grothendieck group $K_0(R)$ of a graded ring $R$ with involution. If $\Gamma$ is an abelian group, we show that $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}$ completely classifies graded…
We show that the Green correspondence induces an injective group homomorphism from the linear source Picard group $\mathcal{L}(B)$ of a block $B$ of a finite group algebra to the linear source Picard group $\mathcal{L}(C)$, where $C$ is the…
The inner automorphisms of a group G can be characterized within the category of groups without reference to group elements: they are precisely those automorphisms of G that can be extended, in a functorial manner, to all groups H given…
We consider the derived category of permutation modules for a finite group, in positive characteristic. We stratify this tensor triangulated category using Brauer quotients. We describe the spectrum of its compact objects, by reducing the…
We classify the primitive idempotents of the $p$-local complex representation ring of a finite group $G$ in terms of the cyclic subgroups of order prime to $p$ and show that they all come from idempotents of the Burnside ring. Our results…
Let $kG$ be the group algebra of a finite group scheme defined over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Associated to any closed subset $V$ of the projectivized prime ideal spectrum $\operatorname{Proj} \operatorname{H}^*(G,k)$ is a thick…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p$, and let $P$ be a $p$-subgroup of a finite group $G$. We give sufficient conditions for the $kG$-Scott module $\mathrm{Sc}(G,P)$ with vertex $P$ to remain indcomposable…
For an inner form $\mathrm{G}$ of a general linear group or classical group over a non-archimedean local field of odd residue characteristic, we decompose the category of smooth representations on $\mathbb{Z}[\mu_{p^{\infty}},1/p]$-modules…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $k$ be a sufficiently large finite field. Let $R(G)$ denote the character ring of $G$ (i.e. the Grothendieck ring of the category of ${\mathbb{C}}G$-modules). We study the structure and the representations…
