Abstract: | Suppose that \(G\) is a finite group such that \(\mathrm{SL }(n,q)\subseteq G \subseteq \mathrm{GL }(n,q)\), and that \(Z\) is a central subgroup of \(G\). Let \(T(G/Z)\) be the abelian group of equivalence classes of endotrivial \(k(G/Z)\)-modules, where \(k\) is an algebraically closed field of characteristic \(p\) not dividing \(q\). We show that the torsion free rank of \(T(G/Z)\) is at most one, and we determine \(T(G/Z)\) in the case that the Sylow \(p\)-subgroup of \(G\) is abelian and nontrivial. The proofs for the torsion subgroup of \(T(G/Z)\) use the theory of Young modules for \(\mathrm{GL }(n,q)\) and a new method due to Balmer for computing the kernel of restrictions in the group of endotrivial modules. |
