The Dade group of a finite group

The aim of this paper is to construct an equivalent of the Dade group of a p-group for an arbitrary finite group G, whose elements are equivalences classes of endo-p-permutation modules. To achieve this goal we use the theory of relative projectivity with ...

Stabilizing bisets

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

Let G be a finite group and let R be a commutative ring. We analyse the (G,G)-bisets which stabilize an indecomposable RG-module. We prove that the minimal ones are unique up to equivalence. This result has the same flavor as the uniqueness of vertices and ...

Le foncteur de bi-ensembles des modules de p-permutation

Mélanie Baumann

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, where p is a prime number or 0. Let G be a finite group and ppk(G) be the Grothendieck group of p-permutation kG-modules. If we tensor it with C, then Cppk becomes a C-linear biset functor. Recall ...

Relative Projectivity and Relative Endotrivial Modules

Caroline Lassueur

This dissertation is concerned with modular representation theory of finite groups, and more precisely, with the study of classes of representations, which we shall term relative endotrivial modules. Given a prime number p, a finite group G of order divisi ...

Elementary abelian subgroups in p-groups with a cyclic derived group

David Bornand

Let p be an arbitrary prime and let P be a finite p-group. The general objective of this paper is to obtain refined information on the homotopy type of the poset of all non-trivial elementary abelian subgroups of P, ordered by inclusion, and the poset of a ...

The socle of a projective Mackey functor for a p-group

We study the simple subfunctors of indecomposable projective Mackey functors for a p-group P. Unlike the case of group algebras, the Mackey algebra is not in general self-injective. Thus, the socle of an indecomposable projective functor is not in general ...

Elementary abelian subgroups in p-groups of class 2

David Bornand

All the results in this work concern (finite) p-groups. Chapter 1 is concerned with classifications of some classes of p-groups of class 2 and there are no particularly new results in this chapter, which serves more as an introductory chapter. The "geometr ...

Extension groups between simple Mackey functors

In order to better understand the structure of indecomposable projective Mackey functors, we study extension groups of degree 1 between simple Mackey functors. We explicitly determine these groups between simple functors indexed by distinct normal subgroup ...

Foncteurs de Mackey projectifs

This work deals with the study of projective Mackey functors. Mackey functors are algebraic structures with operations which behave like induction, restriction and conjugation in group representation theory. These objects have properties which generalize m ...

Modules d'endo-p-permutation

Jean-Marie Urfer

This dissertation is concerned with the study of a new family of representations of finite groups, the endo-p-permutation modules. Given a prime number p, a finite group G of order divisible by p and an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p, we ...
