Application of Multihomogeneous Covariants to the Essential Dimension of Finite Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate essential dimension of finite groups over arbitrary fields and give a systematic treatment of multihomogenization, introduced in [KLS08]. We generalize the central extension theorem of Buhler and Reichstein, [BR97, Theorem 5.3] and use multihomogenization to substitute and generalize the stack-involved part of the theorem of Karpenko and Merkurjev [KM08] about the essential dimension of p-groups. One part of this paper is devoted to the study of completely reducible faithful representations. Amongst results concerning faithful representations of minimal dimension there is a computation of the minimal number of irreducible components needed for a faithful representation.

متن کاملModified Fixed Grid Finite Element Method to Solve 3D Elasticity Problems of Functionally Graded Materials
In the present paper, applicability of the modified fixed grid finite element method in solution of three dimensional elasticity problems of functionally graded materials is investigated. In the non-boundary-fitted meshes, the elements are not conforming to the domain boundaries and the boundary nodes which are used in the traditional finite element method for the application of boundary condit...
متن کاملPseudo-reflection groups and essential dimension
We give a simple formula for the essential dimension of a finite pseudoreflection group at a prime p and determine the absolute essential dimension for most irreducible pseudo-reflection groups. We also study the “poor man’s essential dimension” of an arbitrary finite group, an intermediate notion between the absolute essential dimension and the essential dimension at a prime p.
متن کاملA classification of hull operators in archimedean lattice-ordered groups with unit
The category, or class of algebras, in the title is denoted by $bf W$. A hull operator (ho) in $bf W$ is a reflection in the category consisting of $bf W$ objects with only essential embeddings as morphisms. The proper class of all of these is $bf hoW$. The bounded monocoreflection in $bf W$ is denoted $B$. We classify the ho's by their interaction with $B$ as follows. A ``word'' is a function ...
متن کاملClassical Covariants and Modular Invariants
There is a relationship between the covariants of binary forms, a central topic in classical invariant theory, and the invariants of modular representations of cyclic groups of prime order. This relationship was identified by Gert Almkvist [1] and used implicitly in both [15] and [17]. In this note we investigate the relationship and provide a progress report on an application. Our primary moti...
