This is the first textbook leading coherently from classical character theory to the theory of lattices over orders and integral representations of finite groups. After the introduction to simple modules allowing a non degenerate invariant bilinear form in any characteristic the author illustrates step by step the approach given by Sin and Willems. Dirichlet characters and results on primes in arithmetic progressions are given as applications.

This symposium, on Representation Theory of Finite Groups and Related Topics, was held in conjunction with a sectional meeting of the American Mathematical Society, and in honor of professor Richard Brauer. Dr. Brauer's fundamental work in representation theory is at the heart of many further developments in the topic. These proceedings contain the articles of participants, based on their symposium presentations, and indicate the scope of current research in representation theory.

This graduate-level text provides a thorough grounding in the representation theory of finite groups over fields and rings. The book provides a balanced and comprehensive account of the subject, detailing the methods needed to analyze representations that arise in many areas of mathematics. Key topics include the construction and use of character tables, the role of induction and restriction, projective and simple modules for group algebras, indecomposable representations, Brauer characters, and block theory. This classroom-tested text provides motivation through a large number of worked examples, with exercises at the end of each chapter that test the reader's knowledge, provide further examples and practice, and include results not proven in the text. Prerequisites include a graduate course in abstract algebra, and familiarity with the properties of groups, rings, field extensions, and linear algebra.

This is the fourth volume of a comprehensive and elementary treatment of finite p-group theory. As in the previous volumes, minimal nonabelian p-groups play an important role. Topics covered in this volume include: subgroup structure of metacyclic p-groups Ishikawa’s theorem on p-groups with two sizes of conjugate classes p-central p-groups theorem of Kegel on nilpotence of H p-groups partitions of p-groups characterizations of Dedekindian groups norm of p-groups p-groups with 2-uniserial subgroups of small order The book also contains hundreds of original exercises and solutions and a comprehensive list of more than 500 open problems. This work is suitable for researchers and graduate students with a modest background in algebra.
