Let $G$ be a cyclic group of order $p$, let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p$, and let $V, W$ be $kG$-modules. We study the modules of covariants $k[V,W]^G = (S(V^*) \otimes W)^G$. For $V$ indecomposable with dimension 2, and $W$ an…
Let the finite group $G$ act linearly on the vector space $V$ over the field $k$ of arbitrary characteristic. If $H<G$ is a subgroup the extension of invariant rings $k[V]^G\subset k[V]^H$ is studied using modules of covariants. An example…
We consider a finite dimensional $\kk G$-module $V$ of a $p$-group $G$ over a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. We describe a generating set for the corresponding Hilbert Ideal. In case $G$ is cyclic this yields that the algebra $\kk[V]_G$…
Let $V,W$ be representations of a cyclic group $G$ of prime order $p$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p$. The module of covariants $k[V,W]^G$ is the set of $G$-equivariant polynomial maps $V \rightarrow W$, and is a module over…
We show that every finitely generated cohomologically trivial module over $RG$, where $G$ is a finite $p$-group and $R$ is a $p$-adic ring, splits as the direct sum of a finite cohomologically trivial $RG$-module and a free $RG$-module.…
We study rings of integral modular forms for congruence subgroups as modules over the ring of integral modular forms for the full modular group. In many cases these modules are free or decompose at least into well-understood pieces. We…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p$. We conjecture that if $M$ is a $kG$-module with $H^*(G,M)$ finitely generated as a module over $H^*(G,k)$ then as an element of the stable module category…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $k$ be a field whose characteristic $p$ divides the order of $G$. Freyd's generating hypothesis for the stable module category of $G$ is the statement that a map between finite-dimensional $kG$-modules in…
Let G be a reductive complex algebraic group and V a finite-dimensional G-module. From elements of the invariant algebra C[V]^G we obtain by polarization elements of C[kV]^G, where k\geq 1 and kV denotes the direct sum of k copies of V. For…
We determine the integral Chow and cohomology rings of the moduli stack $\mathcal{B}_{r,d}$ of rank $r$, degree $d$ vector bundles on $\mathbb{P}^1$ bundles. We first show that the rational Chow ring $A_{\mathbb{Q}}^*(\mathcal{B}_{r,d})$ is…
We investigate cofree coalgebras, and limits and colimits of coalgebras in some abelian monoidal categories of interest, such as bimodules over a ring, and modules and comodules over a bialgebra or Hopf algebra. We find concrete generators…
Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a homomorphic image of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We use the splitting of local cohomology to shed a new light on the structure of non-Cohen-Macaulay modules. Namely, we show…
We study modules over a generalized Weyl algebra $R(\sigma,a)$ which are free when restricted to the base ring $R$. When $R$ is an integral domain, we construct all such finite-rank modules up to isomorphism, leading to new simple modules…
Let $R$ be a commutative, Noetherian, local ring and $M$ an $R$-module. Consider the module of homomorphisms $\operatorname{Hom}_R(R/\mathfrak{a},M/\mathfrak{b} M)$ where $\mathfrak{b}\subseteq\mathfrak{a}$ are parameter ideals of $M$. When…
We determine the rings of invariants in the symmetric algebra on the dual of a vector space V over the field of two elements, for the group G of orthogonal transformations preserving a non-singular quadratic form on V. The invariant ring is…

In this paper, we study the vector invariants, ${\bf{F}}[m V_2]^{C_p}$, of the 2-dimensional indecomposable representation $V_2$ of the cylic group, $C_p$, of order $p$ over a field ${\bf{F}}$ of characteristic $p$. This ring of invariants…
Let $(V,q)$ be a non-degenerate $n$-dimensional quadratic space over the rationals of real signature $(r,s)$. For every integer $1\leq k \leq \min\{r,n-2\}$ we construct classes in the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups of $\mathrm{O}(V)$…
A finitely generated module $M$ over a local ring is called a sequentially generalized Cohen-Macaulay module if there is a filtration of submodules of $M$: $M_0\subset M_1\subset ... \subset M_t=M$ such that $\dim M_0<\dim M_1< >... <\dim…
Let $A$ be the ring of integers of global field $K$. Let $G \subseteq GL_2(A)$ be a finite group. Let $G$ act linearly on $R = A[X,Y]$ (fixing $A$). Let $R^G$ be the ring of invariants. In the equi-characteristic case we prove $R^G$ is…
