In a step towards the classification of endotrivial modules for quasi-simple groups, we investigate endotrivial modules for the sporadic simple groups and their covers. A main outcome of our study is the existence of torsion endotrivial…

We investigate simple endotrivial modules of finite quasi-simple groups and classify them in several important cases. This is motivated by a recent result of Robinson showing that simple endotrivial modules of most groups come from…

We finish off the classification of the endo-trivial modules of finite groups with Sylow $2$-subgroups isomorphic to a semi-dihedral $2$-group started by Carlson, Mazza and Th\'evenaz in their article "Endotrivial modules over groups with…

It is well known that if G is a finite group then the group of endotrivial modules is finitely generated. In this paper we investigate endotrivial modules over arbitrary finite group schemes. Our results can be applied to computing the…

This paper is a major step in the classification of endotrivial modules over p-groups. Let G be a finite p-group and k be a field of characteristic p. A kG-module M is an endo-trivial module if {\End_k(M)\cong k\oplus F} as kG-modules,…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by $p$, and let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p$. An endotrivial $kG$-module is a finitely generated $kG$-module $M$ such that its endomorphism algebra…

If $\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{g}_{\overline{0}} \oplus \mathfrak{g}_{\overline{1}}$ is a Lie superalgebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic 0, the notion of an endotrivial module has recently been extended to…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and $G$ a finite group. We provide a description of the torsion subgroup $TT(G)$ of the finitely generated abelian group $T(G)$ of endo-trivial $kG$-modules when $p=2$ and $G$…

Motivated by a recent result of Robinson showing that simple endotrivial modules essentially come from quasi-simple groups we classify such modules for finite special linear and unitary groups as well as for exceptional groups of Lie type.…

We show that when G is a finite group which contains an elementary Abelian subgroup of order p^2 and k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, then the study of simple endotrivial kG-modules which are not monomial may be…

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…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $p$ a prime, and $k$ a field of characteristic $p$. We introduce the notion of an endotrivial chain complex of $p$-permutation $kG$-modules, which are the invertible objects in the bounded homotopy category of…

Motivated by an observation in "Vertices, sources and Green correspondents of the simple modules for the large Mathieu groups", J. of Algebra 322, we determine the source algebra, and therefore all the structure, of the blocks without…

In this paper we investigate a categorical aspect of $n$-trivial extension of a ring by a family of modules. Namely, we introduce the right (resp., left) $n$-trivial extension of a category by a family of endofunctors. Among other results,…

We investigate the endotrivial modules for the Schur covers of the symmetric and alternating groups and determine the structure of their group of endotrivial modules in all characteristics. We provide a full description of this group by…

The aim of this paper is to describe the group of endo-trivial modules for a $p$-group $P$, in terms of the obstruction group for the gluing problem of Borel-Smith functions.

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ be a field of characteristic $p > 0$. In prior work, we studied endotrivial complexes, the invertible objects of the bounded homotopy category $K^b({}_{kG}\mathbf{triv})$ of $p$-permutation $kG$-modules.…

We study the finitely generated abelian group $T(G)$ of endo-trivial $kG$-modules where $kG$ is the group algebra of a finite group $G$ over a field of characteristic $p>0$. When the representation type of the group algebra is not wild, the…

We prove a conjecture of J. Carlson, N. Mazza and J. Th\'evenaz; namely, we will prove that if $G$ is a finite $p$-nilpotent group which contains a non-cyclic elementary Abelian $p$-subgroup and $k$ is an algebraically closed field of…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite group such that $\operatorname{SL}(n,q)\subseteq G \subseteq \operatorname{GL}(n,q)$, and that $Z$ is a central subgroup of $G$. Let $T(G/Z)$ be the abelian group of equivalence classes of endotrivial…
