Modular Representation Theory [electronic resource] : New Trends and Methods / by David J. Benson.

By: Benson, David J [author.]Contributor(s): SpringerLink (Online service)Material type: TextTextSeries: Lecture Notes in Mathematics ; 1081Publisher: Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1984Description: XII, 231 p. online resourceContent type: text Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9783540389408Subject(s): Mathematics | Group theory | Mathematics | Group Theory and GeneralizationsAdditional physical formats: Printed edition:: No titleDDC classification: 512.2 LOC classification: QA174-183Online resources: Click here to access online In: Springer eBooksSummary: The aim of this 1983 Yale graduate course was to make some recent results in modular representation theory accessible to an audience ranging from second-year graduate students to established mathematicians. After a short review of background material, three closely connected topics in modular representation theory of finite groups are treated: representations rings, almost split sequences and the Auslander-Reiten quiver, complexity and cohomology varieties. The last of these has become a major theme in representation theory into the 21st century. Some of this material was incorporated into the author's 1991 two-volume Representations and Cohomology, but nevertheless Modular Representation Theory remains a useful introduction.
