Description for Representations of Finite Groups
Paperback. This book presents the solution of a long-standing problem concerning the stable module category (of not necessarily finite dimensional representations) of a finite group. The proof draws on commutative algebra, cohomology of groups and stable homotopy theory. Series: Oberwolfach Seminars. Num Pages: 115 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBF; PBG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 239 x 170 x 9. Weight in Grams: 240.
The seminar focuses on a recent solution, by the authors, of a long standing problem concerning the stable module category (of not necessarily finite dimensional representations) of a finite group. The proof draws on ideas from commutative algebra, cohomology of groups, and stable homotopy theory. The unifying theme is a notion of support which provides a geometric approach for studying various algebraic structures. The prototype for this has been Daniel Quillen’s description of the algebraic variety corresponding to the cohomology ring of a finite group, based on which Jon Carlson introduced support varieties for modular representations. This has made it ... Read more

Reviews for Representations of Finite Groups
From the reviews: “The book is aimed at a readership with a solid background in algebra, in particular representation theory, commutative algebra and homological algebra. The volume comprises five chapters and an appendix, and each chapter is divided into four sections. Each chapter consists of the lecture material and the exercises handled during one day at the Oberwolfach Seminar ... Read more
