The notes in this volume were written as a part of a Nachdiplom course that I gave at the ETH in the summer semester of 1995. The aim of my lectures was the development of some of the basics of the interaction of homological algebra, or more specifically the cohomology of groups, and modular representation theory. Every time that I had given such a course in the past fifteen years, the choice of the material and the order of presentation of the results have followed more or less the same basic pattern. Such a course began with the fundamentals of group cohomology, and then investigated the structure of cohomology rings, and their maximal ideal spectra. Then the variety of a module was defined and related to actual module structure through the rank variety. Applications followed. The standard approach was used in my University of Essen Lecture Notes [e1] in 1984. Evens [E] and Benson [B2] have written it up in much clearer detail and included it as part of their books on the subject.

Rings, Modules, Algebras, and Abelian Groups summarizes the proceedings of a recent algebraic conference held at Venice International University in Italy. Surveying the most influential developments in the field, this reference reviews the latest research on Abelian groups, algebras and their representations, module and ring theory, and topological algebraic structures, and provides more than 600 current references and 570 display equations for further exploration of the topic. It provides stimulating discussions from world-renowned names including Laszlo Fuchs, Robert Gilmer, Saharon Shelah, Daniel Simson, and Richard Swan to celebrate 40 years of study on cumulative rings. Describing emerging theories

This book is concerned with the structure of group algebras of finite groups over fields of characteristic [lowercase italic]p dividing the order of the group, or closely related rings such as rings of algebraic integers and in particular their [lowercase italic]p-adic completions, as well as modules and homomorphisms between them, or such group algebras. Our principal aim has been to present some of the more recent ideas which have enriched and improved this theory. This text is not restricted to particular methods, be they ring theoretic or character theoretic, while presenting approaches or proofs which are distinguished by being fast, elegant, illuminating, with potential for further advancement, or all of these at the same time. This text hopes to attract non-specialists, perhaps algebraic topologists and group theorists who might use the tools of modular representations more frequently.

In 1898 Frobenius discovered a construction which, in present terminology, associates with every module of a subgroup the induced module of a group. This construction proved to be of fundamental importance and is one of the basic tools in the entire theory of group representations.This monograph is designed for research mathematicians and advanced graduate students and gives a picture of the general theory of induced modules as it exists at present. Much of the material has until now been available only in research articles. The approach is not intended to be encyclopedic, rather each topic is considered in sufficient depth that the reader may obtain a clear idea of the major results in the area.After establishing algebraic preliminaries, the general facts about induced modules are provided, as well as some of their formal properties, annihilators and applications. The remaining chapters include detailed information on the process of induction from normal subgroups, projective summands of induced modules, some basic results of the Green theory with refinements and extensions, simple induction and restriction pairs and permutation modules. The final chapter is based exclusively on the work of Weiss, presenting a number of applications to the isomorphism problem for group rings.

This book gives a comprehensive treatment of the theory of G-Algebras and shows how it can be used to solve a number of problems about blocks, modules and almost split sequences. The new approach to modular representation theory of finite groups was developed mainly by Lluis Puig since the 1970s and has several characteristic features: unification of several theories (e.g. block theory and module theory) under a single concept, introduction of new invariants (e.g. source algebras and multiplicity modules) which shed new light on the whole, new point of view on some classical theorems (e.g. Brauer's second main theorem) yielding more precise results, deep structural results such as Puig's theory on nilpotent blocks.

Module theory over commutative asociative rings is usually extended to noncommutative associative rings by introducing the category of left (or right) modules. An alternative to this procedure is suggested by considering bimodules. A refined module theory for associative rings is used to investigate the bimodule structure of arbitary algebras and group actions on these algebras.

The theory of algebras, rings, and modules is one of the fundamental domains of modern mathematics. General algebra, more specifically non-commutative algebra, is poised for major advances in the twenty-first century (together with and in interaction with combinatorics), just as topology, analysis, and probability experienced in the twentieth centu
