Modular Representations of Profinite Groups
Our aim is to transfer several foundational results from the modular representation theory of finite groups to the wider context of profinite groups. We are thus interested in profinite modules over the completed group algebra k[[G]] of a profinite group G, where k is a finite field of characteristic p. We define the concept of relative projectivity for a profinite k[[G]]-module. We prove a cha...
متن کاملModular Representations of Symmetric Groups
Over the last few weeks, we have seen lots of things in representation theory—we began by looking at an onslaught of examples to see explicitly what representations look like, we discussed character theory and looked at character tables, we talked about representations from a module-theoretic perspective, and then we saw how we can model the representation theory of the symmetric group via the ...
متن کاملGrothendieck’s Problems concerning Profinite Completions and Representations of Groups
In 1970 Alexander Grothendieck [6] posed the following problem: let Γ1 and Γ2 be finitely presented, residually finite groups, and let u : Γ1 → Γ2 be a homomorphism such that the induced map of profinite completions û : Γ̂1 → Γ̂2 is an isomorphism; does it follow that u is an isomorphism? In this paper we settle this problem by exhibiting pairs of groups u : P ↪→ Γ such that Γ is a direct product...

γ = c0 + c1p+ c2p + · · · = (. . . c3c2c1c0)p, with ci ∈ Z, 0 ≤ ci ≤ p− 1, called the digits of γ. This ring has a topology given by a restriction of the product topology—we will see this below. The ring Zp can be viewed as Z/pZ for an ‘infinitely high’ power n. This is a useful idea, for example, in the study of Diophantine equations: if such an equation has a solution in the integers, then it...
متن کاملCohomology of Profinite Groups
A directed set I is a partially ordered set such that for all i, j ∈ I there exists a k ∈ I such that k ≥ i and k ≥ j. An inverse system of groups is a collection of groups {Gi} indexed by a directed set I together with group homomorphisms πij : Gi −→ Gj whenever i ≥ j such that πii = idGi and πjk ◦ πij = πik. Let H be a group. We call a family of homomorphisms {ψi : H −→ Gi : i ∈ I} compatible...
