Characters and Blocks of Finite Groups

1998

This is a clear, accessible and up-to-date exposition of modular representation theory of finite groups from a character-theoretic viewpoint. After a short review of the necessary background material, the early chapters introduce Brauer characters and blocks and develop their basic properties. The next three chapters study and prove Brauer's first, second and third main theorems in turn. These results are then applied to prove a major application of finite groups, the Glauberman Z*-theorem. Later chapters examine Brauer characters in more detail. The relationship between blocks and normal subgroups is also explored and the modular characters and blocks in p-solvable groups are discussed. Fi…

Large orbits ofp-groups on characters and applications to character degrees

2005

We prove that if ap-groupA acts on a solvablep′-groupG then there is a “large” orbit on the ordinary complex irreducible characters ofG. As a consequence of this theorem we obtain results that relate ordinary and Brauer character degrees.

A Lattice-Geometric Proof of Wedderburn’s Theorem

1993

This note presents a proof of Wedderburn’s theorem concerning the classification of semisimple rings within the conceptual frame of projective lattice geometry.

An Integral Version of Ćirić’s Fixed Point Theorem

2011

We establish a new fixed point theorem for mappings satisfying a general contractive condition of integral type. The presented theorem generalizes the well known Ciric's fixed point theorem [Lj. B. Ciric, Generalized contractions and fixed point theorems, Publ. Inst. Math. 12 (26) (1971) 19-26]. Some examples and applications are given.

Elliptic convolution operators on non-quasianalytic classes

2001

For those nonquasianalytic classes in which an extension of the classical Borel's theorem holds we show that every elliptic convolution operator is the composition of a translation and an invertible ultradifferential operator. This answers a question asked by Chou in: La transformation de Fourier complexe et l'equation de convolution, LNM 325, Berlin-Heidelberg-New York (1973).

Quantum Groups, Star Products and Cyclic Cohomology

1993

After some historical remarks, we start with a rapid overview of the star-product theory (deformation of algebras of functions on phase space) and its applications to deformation-quantization. We then concentrate on Poisson-Lie groups and their “quantization”, give a star-product realization of quantum groups and discuss uniqueness and the rigidity as bialgebra of a universal model for the quantum SL(2) groups. In the last part we develop the notion of closed star-product (for which a trace can be defined on the algebra), show that it is classified by cyclic cohomology, permits to define a character and that there always exists one; finally we show that the pseudodifferential calculus on a …

Noether’s Early Contributions to Modern Algebra

2020

As described in preceding chapters, Noether’s work on invariant theory broke new ground that led the Gottingen mathematicians, but first and foremost Hilbert, to invite her to habilitate there.
