Groupe abélien de type fini | EPFL Graph Search

En mathématiques, un groupe abélien de type fini est un groupe abélien qui possède une partie génératrice finie. Autrement dit : c'est un module de type fini sur l'anneau Z des entiers relatifs. Par conséquent, les produits finis, les quotients, mais aussi les sous-groupes des groupes abéliens de type fini sont eux-mêmes de type fini. Un théorème de structure des groupes abéliens de type fini permet d'expliciter la liste complète de ces groupes à isomorphisme près ; il montre notamment que tout groupe abélien de type fini est un produit fini de groupes monogènes. Définition Un groupe abélien de type fini est un groupe abélien (c'est-à-dire un groupe dont la loi est commutative) de rang fini, c'est-à-dire engendré par une partie finie. Exemples Les deux énoncés ci-dessous concernent les groupes de type fini, sans qu'il soit besoin de les supposer commutatifs, et sont très élémentaires :

Tout produit fini de groupes de type fini est de type fini.
Tout quotient

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 say that a kG-module M is an endo-p-permutation module if its endomorphism algebra Endk(M) is a p-permutation kG-module, that is a direct summand of a permutation kG-module. This generalizes the notion, first introduced by E. Dade in 1978, of endo-permutation modules for p-groups . For P a p-group, E. Dade defined an abelian group structure on the set of isomorphism classes of indecomposable endo-permutation kP-modules with vertex P and he proved that the complete description of the structure of this group is equivalent to the classification of endo-permutation kP-modules. This group of isomorphism classes is now called the Dade group of the p-group P. The problem of describing the Dade group for an arbitrary p-group was recently solved by S. Bouc. This opens the question of studying endo-p-permutation modules, which are the natural generalization to arbitrary finite groups of endo-permutation modules. In the following text, we present the basic properties of endo-p-permutation modules and give a characterization of indecomposable endo-p-permutation modules with vertex P via properties of their sources modules. In particular, when the normalizer of P controls p-fusion, we are able to give a complete classification of sources of indecomposable endo-p-permutation modules with vertex P, using Bouc's description of the Dade group. When p is odd, we also give an alternative proof of a theorem of Dade concerned with extensions of endo-permutation modules, using our previous results. We present a consequence of this theorem of Dade on the structure of the multiplicity module associated to an indecomposable endo-p-permutation module. Finally we study some concrete examples of endo-p-permutation modules such as relative syzygies and relative Heller translates. We prove also that the Green correspondent of an indecomposable kNG(P)- endo-p-permutation module with vertex P is not in general an endo-p-permutation kG-module. The study of such representations is motivated by the important role they play in certain areas of representations theory. For instance, endo-permutation modules, and more generally endo-p-permutation modules (as is proved here), appear in the study of simple modules for p-solvable groups.

Hasse principles for multinorm equations

Eva Bayer Fluckiger, Ting-Yu Lee

A classical result of Hasse states that the norm principle holds for finite cyclic extensions of global fields, in other words local norms are global norms. We investigate the norm principle for finite dimensional commutative kale algebras over global fields; since such an algebra is a product of separable extensions, this is often called the multinorm principle. Under the assumption that the kale algebra contains a cyclic factor, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the Hasse principle to hold, in terms of an explicitly constructed element of a finite abelian group. This can be seen as an explicit description of the Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

The group of endo-permutation modules

Serge Bouc, Jacques Thévenaz

The group D(P) of all endo-permutation modules for a finite p-group P is a finitely generated abelian group. We prove that its torsion-free rank is equal to the number of conjugacy classes of non-cyclic subgroups of P. We also obtain partial results on its torsion subgroup. We determine next the structure of Q\otimes D(-) viewed as a functor, which turns out to be a simple functor S_{E,Q}, indexed by the elementary group E of order p^2 and the trivial Out(E)-module Q. Finally we describe a rather strange exact sequence relating Q\otimes D(P), Q\otimes B(P), and Q\otimes R(P), where B(P) is the Burnside ring and R(P) is the Grothendieck ring of QP-modules.
