Explicit brauer induction : with applications to algebra and number theory

By: Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Series: Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics ; 40Publication details: Cambridge Cambridge University Press 1994Description: xii, 409p. illISBN:
  • 0521460158 (HB)
Subject(s):
Contents:
1. Representations 2. Induction theorems 3. GL[subscript 2]F[subscript q] 4. The class-group of a group-ring 5. A class-group miscellany 6. Complete discrete valuation fields 7. Galois module structure.
Summary: Explicit Brauer Induction is an important technique in algebra, discovered by the author in 1986. It solves an old problem, giving a canonical formula for Brauer's induction theorem. In this 1994 book it is derived algebraically, following a method of R. Boltje - thereby making the technique, previously topological, accessible to algebraists.
