Permutation modules and cohomological singularity

Representation Theory 2024-09-10 v3 Category Theory

Abstract

We define a new invariant of finitely generated representations of a finite group, with coefficients in a commutative noetherian ring. This invariant uses group cohomology and takes values in the singularity category of the coefficient ring. It detects which representations are controlled by permutation modules.
