For G=SL_n or GL_n we construct representations V such that the invariant ring K[V]^G is not Cohen-Macaulay.

Let G be a group which acts on a commutative ring k. We exhibit an induction formula which expresses an element x_G with tr_G(x_G)=1 by elements x_P with tr_P(x_P)=1, where P varies over prime order subgroups of P.

For a commutative ring R with many units, we describe the kernel of H_3(inc): H_3(GL_2(R), Z) --> H_3(GL_3(R), Z). Moreover we show that the elements of this kernel are of order at most two. As an application we study the indecomposable…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Algebraic structures of a specific type (e.g. algebras or coalgebras) on a given vector space $W$ over $K$ can be encoded as points in an affine space $U(W)$. This space is…

A group action on the input ring or category induces an action on the algebraic $K$-theory spectrum. However, a shortcoming of this naive approach to equivariant algebraic $K$-theory is, for example, that the map of spectra with $G$-action…

We describe the group SK_1(R[G]) for group rings R[G] where G is an arbitrary finite group and where the coefficient ring R is a p-adically complete Noetherian integral domain of characteristic zero which admits a lift of Frobenius and…

Let $k$ be a field and $G \subseteq Gl_n(k)$ be a finite group with $|G|^{-1} \in k$. Let $G$ act linearly on $A = k[X_1, \ldots, X_n]$ and let $A^G$ be the ring of invariant's. Suppose there does not exist any non-trivial one-dimensional…

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…

Consider a finite group $G$ acting on a graded Noetherian $k$-algebra $S$, for some field $k$ of characteristic $p$; for example $S$ might be a polynomial ring. Regard $S$ as a $kG$-module and consider the multiplicity of a particular…

Let G be a finite group and let T(G) be the abelian group of equivalence classes of endotrivial kG-modules, where k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We determine, in terms of the structure of G, the kernel of the…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field ${\bf k}$ of characteristic not equal to 2, let $\B$ be the variety of all Borel subgroups of $G$, and let $K$ be a symmetric subgroup of $G$. Fixing a…

We generalize the theory of the second invariant cohomology group $H^2_{\rm inv}(G)$ for finite groups $G$, developed in [Da2,Da3,GK], to the case of affine algebraic groups $G$, using the methods of [EG1,EG2,G]. In particular, we show that…

Building upon work of Y. Shalom we give a homological-algebra flavored definition of an induction map in group homology associated to a topological coupling. As an application we obtain estimates of the (co)homological dimension of groups G…

Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group K on a compact symplectic manifold. We find descriptions of the kernel of the Kirwan map corresponding to a regular value of the moment map $\kappa_K$. We start with the case when K is a…

In this paper we study hermitian kernels invariant under the action of a semigroup with involution. We characterize those hermitian kernels which realize the given action by bounded operators on a Krein space. Applications to the GNS…

Given a linear action of a group $G$ on a $K$-vector space $V$, we consider the invariant ring $K[V \oplus V^*]^G$, where $V^*$ is the dual space. We are particularly interested in the case where $V =\gfq^n$ and $G$ is the group $U_n$ of…

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…

For $K$ a field, consider a finite subgroup $G$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(K)$ with its natural action on the polynomial ring $R:=K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$. Let $\mathfrak{n}$ denote the homogeneous maximal ideal of the ring of invariants $R^G$. We…

We classify quantum analogues of actions of finite subgroups G of SL_2(k) on commutative polynomial rings k[u,v]. More precisely, we produce a classification of pairs (H,R), where H is a finite dimensional Hopf algebra that acts inner…

Let K be an algebraically closed field. For a finitely generated graded K algebra R, let cmdef R := dim R - depth R denote the Cohen-Macaulay-defect of R. Let G be a linear algebraic group over K that is reductive but not linearly…
