Separable commutative rings in the stable module category of cyclic groups

Representation Theory 2024-09-10 v2 Category Theory

Abstract

We prove that the only separable commutative ring-objects in the stable module category of a finite cyclic p-group G are the ones corresponding to subgroups of G. We also describe the tensor-closure of the Kelly radical of the module category and of the stable module category of any finite group.
