Some Weyl Modules for Simple Algebraic Groups of Type B4 and D4

Let G be a simply connected, semisimple algebraic group of type B₄ or D₄ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We determine the characters of certain simple modules for these groups by calculating the composition factors of the Weyl modules.     

n-C-Star Modules and n-C-Tilting Modules

Let C be a faithfully balanced selforthogonal module over an Artin algebra R. We introduce the notion of n-C-star modules, which is a common generalization of n-star modules and n-C-tilting modules. We extend some characterizations of n-star modules to this context and prove that n-C-tilting modules are precisely n-C-star modules n-C-presenting all the injectives.     

A Note on the Associated Primes of Local Cohomology Modules

In this note we give a simple proof of the following result: Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring,  an ideal of R and M a finite R-module, if H_ ⁱ (M) has finite support for all i < n, then Ass(H_ ⁿ (M)) is finite.     

Projective Summands in Tensor Products of Simple Modules of Finite Dimensional Hopf Algebras

Abstract

Let H be a finite dimensional Hopf algebra over a field k. We show that H contains a unique maximal Hopf ideal J _w (H) contained in J(H), the Jacobson radical of H. We give various characterizations of J _w (H), for example J _w (H) = Ann _H ((H/J(H))^?n ) for all large enough n. The smallest positive integer n with this property is denoted by l _w (H). We prove that l _w (H) equals the smallest number n such that (H/J(H))^?n contains every projective indecomposable H/J _w (H)-module as a direct summand. This also equals the minimal n such that the tensor product of n suitable simple H-modules contains the projective cover of the trivial H/J _w (H)-module as a direct summand. We define projective homomorphisms between H-modules, which are used to obtain various reciprocity laws for tensor products of simple H-modules and their projective indecomposable direct summands. We also discuss some consequences of our general results in case H = kG is a group algebra of a finite group G and k is a field of characteristic p.     

Generic Modules Over a Class of Drinfeld's Quantum Doubles

Let k be a field and A _n (ω) be the Taft's n ²-dimensional Hopf algebras. When n is odd, the Drinfeld quantum double D(A _n (ω)) of A _n (ω) is a Ribbon Hopf algebra. In the previous articles, we constructed an n ⁴-dimensional Hopf algebra H _n (p, q) which is isomorphic to D(A _n (ω)) if p ≠ 0 and q = ω^?1, and studied the finite dimensional representations of H _n (1, q). We showed that the basic algebra of any nonsimple block of H _n (1, q) is independent of n. In this article, we examine the infinite representations of H ₂(1, ? 1), or equivalently of H _n (1, q)?D(A _n (ω)) for any n ≥ 2. We investigate the indecomposable and algebraically compact modules over H ₂(1, ? 1), describe the structures of these modules and classify them under the elementary equivalence.     

On the Support Problem for Drinfeld Modules

Let Φ be a Drinfeld A-module over an A-field K of generic characteristic. We will prove the following two results which are analogous to ones in number fields. Case 1. Φ is of rank one. Suppose that P and Q are two nontorsion points in Φ(K). If for any element a ? A and almost all prime ideals 𝒫 in  one has that Φ _a (P) ≡ 0 (mod 𝒫) ? Φ _a (Q) ≡ 0 (mod 𝒫), then Q = Φ _m (P) for some m ? A. Case 2. Φ is of general rank ≥ 1. Let x, y ? Φ(K) be two K-rational points. Denote  = End _K (Φ) which is commutative and Λ =  · y which is a cyclic -module. Let red _v :Φ(K) → Φ(k _v ) be the reduction map at a place v of K with residue field k _v . If red _v (x) ? red _v (Λ) for almost all places v of K. Then f(x) = g(y), for some nonzero elements f and g in .     

Stability of Numerical Invariants in Free Groups

Let d be an odd integer, and let k be a field which contains a primitive dth root of unity. Let l ₁ and l ₂ be cyclic field extensions of k of degree d with norms n _{l 1/k} and n _{l 2/k} . Minà?'s approach which showed that quadratic Pfister forms are strongly multiplicative is applied to the form n _{l 1/k}  ? n _{l 2/k} of degree d. Let K = k(X ₁,…, X _{d ²} ). We compute polynomials which are similarity factors of a form of the kind N ? (n _{l 2/k}  ? _k K) over K, where N is the norm of a certain field extension of K of degree d. These polynomials arise by specializing certain indeterminates of the homogeneous polynomial representing the form n _{l 1/k}  ? n _{l 2/k} to be zero. Similar results are obtained for the tensor product of the norm of a cubic division algebra and a cubic norm n _{l 1/k} .     

The Category of Firm Modules for Nonunital Monomial Algebras

Let k be a field and X a set and P be a set of words over X. Consider the free nonunital k-algebra over X generated by the nonempty words over X and let R be the quotient of this algebra modulo the ideal generated by the words in P. R is called a “nonunital monomial algebra”. A right R-module M is said to be “firm” if M? _R R → M given by m ? r? mr is an isomorphism. In this article we prove that if R is a nonunital monomial algebra, the category of firm modules is Grothendieck.     

Co-Point Modules Over Frobenius Koszul Algebras

Let A be a Frobenius Koszul algebra such that its Koszul dual A ^! is a quantum polynomial algebra. Co-point modules over A were defined as dual notion of point modules over A ^! with respect to the Koszul duality. In this article, we will see that various important functors between module categories over A used in representation theory of finite dimensional algebras send co-point modules to co-point modules. As a consequence, we will show that if (E, σ) is a geometric pair associated to A ^!, then the map σ:E → E is an automorphism of the point scheme E of A ^!, so that there is a bijection between isomorphism classes of left point modules over A ^! and those of right point modules over A ^!.     

Pure Submodules of Finite Direct Sums of Co-Purely Indecomposable Modules

A torsion-free module M of finite rank over a discrete valuation ring R with prime p is co-purely indecomposable if M is indecomposable and rank M = 1 + dim _R/pR (M/pM). Co-purely indecomposable modules are duals of pure finite rank submodules of the p-adic completion of R. Pure submodules of cpi-decomposable modules (finite direct sums of co-purely indecomposable modules) are characterized. Included are various examples and properties of these modules.     

Simple-Baer Rings and Minannihilator Modules

Let R be a ring. M is said to be a minannihilator left R-module if r _M l _R (I) = IM for any simple right ideal I of R. A right R-module N is called simple-flat if Nl _R (I) = l _N (I) for any simple right ideal I of R. R is said to be a left simple-Baer (resp., left simple-coherent) ring if the left annihilator of every simple right ideal is a direct summand of _R R (resp., finitely generated). We first obtain some properties of minannihilator and simple-flat modules. Then we characterize simple-coherent rings, simple-Baer rings, and universally mininjective rings using minannihilator and simple-flat modules.     

On Copure Projective Modules and Copure Projective Dimensions

Let R be any ring. A right R-module M is called n-copure projective if Ext¹(M, N) = 0 for any right R-module N with fd(N) ≤ n, and M is said to be strongly copure projective if Ext ⁱ (M, F) = 0 for all flat right R-modules F and all i ≥ 1. In this article, firstly, we present some general properties of n-copure projective modules and strongly copure projective modules. Then we define and investigate copure projective dimensions of modules and rings. Finally, more properties and applications of n-copure projective modules, strongly copure projective modules and copure projective dimensions are given over coherent rings with finite self-FP-injective dimension.     

n-Strongly Gorenstein Projective,Injective and Flat Modules

In this article, we study the relation between m-strongly Gorenstein projective (resp., injective) modules and n-strongly Gorenstein projective (resp., injective) modules whenever m ≠ n, and the homological behavior of n-strongly Gorenstein projective (resp., injective) modules. We introduce the notion of n-strongly Gorenstein flat modules. Then we study the homological behavior of n-strongly Gorenstein flat modules, and the relation between these modules and n-strongly Gorenstein projective (resp., injective) modules.     

p-Power Points and Modules of Constant p-Power Jordan Type

We study finitely generated modules over k[G] for a finite abelian p-group G, char(k) = p, through restrictions to certain subalgebras of k[G]. We define p-power points, shifted cyclic p-power order subgroups of k[G], and give characterizations of these. We define modules of constant p ^t -Jordan type, constant p ^t -power-Jordan type as generalizations of modules of constant Jordan type, and p ^t -support, nonmaximal p ^t -support spaces. We obtain a filtration of modules of constant Jordan type with modules of constant p-power Jordan type as the last term and give examples of non-isomorphic modules of constant p-power Jordan type having the same constant Jordan type.     

A Tensor Product Factorization for Certain Tilting Modules

Let G be a semisimple, simply connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. In a recent article [6 Doty , S. R. ( 2009 ). Factoring tilting modules for algebraic groups . Journal of Lie Theory 19 ( 3 ): 531 – 535 .[Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], Doty introduces the notion of r-minuscule weight and exhibits a tensor product factorization of a corresponding tilting module under the assumption p ≥ 2h ? 2, where h is the Coxeter number. We remove this restriction and consider some variations involving the more general notion of (p, r)-minuscule weights.     

On G-Covering Subgroup Systems for Some Saturated Formations of Finite Groups

Let ? be a class of groups and G a finite group. We call a set Σ of subgroups of G a G-covering subgroup system for ? if G ∈ ? whenever Σ ? ?. For a non-identity subgroup H of G, we put Σ _H be some set of subgroups of G which contains at least one supplement in G of each maximal subgroup of H. Let p ≠ q be primes dividing |G|, P, and Q be non-identity a p-subgroup and a q-subgroup of G, respectively. We prove that Σ _P and Σ _P  ∪ Σ _Q are G-covering subgroup systems for many classes of finite groups.
