Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2, and let W be the ring of infinite Witt vectors over k. Suppose G is a finite group, and B is a block of kG with dihedral defect group D which is Morita equivalent to the principal…

Let $k$ be a field and let $\Lambda$ be an indecomposable finite dimensional $k$-algebra such that there is a stable equivalence of Morita type between $\Lambda$ and a self-injective split basic Nakayama algebra over $k$. We show that every…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p\geqslant 0$, let $H$ be a proper closed subgroup of $G$ and let $V$ be a nontrivial irreducible $KG$-module, which is $p$-restricted, tensor…

The ring of dual integers is the bounded polynomial ring $\mathbb Z[\epsilon]=\mathbb Z[T]/(T^2)$ with integer coefficients. We describe the (finitely generated) Gorenstein-projective $\mathbb Z[\epsilon]$-modules as the torsionless…

In this note we give an explicit description of the irreducible components of the reduced point varieties of quantum polynomial algebras.

Let $A$ be a coherent algebra and $B$ be a finite-dimensional Gorenstein algebra over a field $k$. We describe finitely presented Gorenstein projective $A\otimes_k B$-modules in terms of their underlying onesided modules. Moreover, if the…

In this paper we generalize the theory of multiplicative $G$-Higgs bundles over a curve to pairs $(G,\theta)$, where $G$ is a reductive algebraic group and $\theta$ is an involution of $G$. This generalization involves the notion of a…

We investigate infinite dimensional modules for a linear algebraic group $\mathbb G$ over a field of positive characteristic $p$. For any subcoalgebra $C \subset \mathcal O(\mathbb G)$ of the coordinate algebra of $\mathbb G$, we consider…

A commutative associative algebra $A$ over ${\mathbb C}$ with a derivation is one of the simplest examples of a vertex algebra. However, the differences between the modules for $A$ as a vertex algebra and the modules for $A$ as an…

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…

It is shown that a transformation in the special orthogonal group SO(V) of a nondefective quadratic space over a field K is bireflectional (product of 2 involutions) if and only if it is reversible (conjugate to its inverse). Furthermore,…

Let $K$ be any field, and let $E$ be any graph. We explicitly construct the projective resolution of simple left modules over the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ associated to cycles and irreducible polynomials. Then we study the dimension of…

We construct examples of bounded below, noncontractible, acyclic complexes of finitely generated projective modules over some rings $S$, as well as bounded above, noncontractible, acyclic complexes of injective modules. The rings $S$ are…

Let $G$ be a simple classical algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p \ge 0$ with natural module $W$. Let $H$ be a closed subgroup of $G$ and let $V$ be a non-trivial irreducible tensor-indecomposable…

Let $A$ be an Iwanaga-Gorenstein ring. Enomoto conjectured that a self-orthogonal $A$-module has finite projective dimension. We prove this conjecture for $A$ having the property that every indecomposable non-projective maximal…

We give a handy way to have a situation that the $kG$-Scott module with vertex $P$ remains indecomposable under taking the Brauer construction for any subgroup $Q$ of $P$ as $k[Q\,C_G(Q)]$-module, where $k$ is a field of characteristic…

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…

Degeneration of modules is usually defined geometrically, but due to results of Zwara and Riedtmann we can also define it in terms of exact sequences. This definition also works over fields that are not algebraically closed. Let $k$ be a…

We try to embed a t-design in a finite commutative group in such a way that the sum of the k points of a block is zero. We can compute the number of blocks of the boolean 2-design having all the non zero vectors of $(Z_2)^n$ as the set of…

The first part of this article is devoted to characterizing the cocycles $\alpha$ of a finite group $G$ that give rise to faithful projective representations of $G$. We prove that a $p$-group $G$ admits a faithful irreducible projective…
