Rational p-biset functors

چکیده

In this paper, I give several characterizations of rational biset functors over p-groups, which are independent of the knowledge of genetic bases for p-groups. I also introduce a construction of new biset functors from known ones, which is similar to the Yoneda construction for representable functors, and to the Dress construction for Mackey functors, and I show that this construction preserves the class of rational p-biset functors. This leads to a characterization of rational p-biset functors as additive functors from a specific quotient category of the biset category to abelian groups. Finally, I give a description of the largest rational quotient of the Burnside p-biset functor : when p is odd, this is simply the functor RQ of rational representations, but when p = 2, it is a non split extension of RQ by a specific uniserial functor, which happens to be closely related to the functor of units of the Burnside ring.

Rhetorical biset functors, rational p-biset functors and their semisimplicity in characteristic zero

Rhetorical biset functors can be defined for any family of finite groups that is closed under subquotients up to isomorphism. The rhetorical p-biset functors almost coincide with the rational p-biset functors. We show that, over a field with characteristic zero, the rhetorical biset functors are semisimple and, furthermore, they admit a character theory involving primitive characters of automor...

K-theory, genotypes, and biset functors

Let p be an odd prime number. In this paper, we show that the genome Γ(P ) of a finite p-group P , defined as the direct product of the genotypes of all rational irreducible representations of P , can be recovered from the first group of K-theory K1(QP ). It follows that the assignment P 7→ Γ(P ) is a p-biset functor. We give an explicit formula for the action of bisets on Γ, in terms of genera...

Idempotents of double Burnside algebras, L-enriched bisets, and decomposition of p-biset functors

Let R be a (unital) commutative ring, andG be a finite group with order invertible in R. We introduce new idempotents εT,S in the double Burnside algebra RB(G,G) of G over R, indexed by conjugacy classes of minimal sections (T, S) of G (i.e. sections such that S ≤ Φ(T )). These idempotents are orthogonal, and their sum is equal to the identity. It follows that for any biset functor F over R, th...

Vanishing evaluations of simple functors

The classification of simple biset functors is known, but the evaluation of a simple biset functor at a finite group G may be zero. We investigate various situations where this happens, as well as cases where this does not occur. We also prove a closed formula for such an evaluation under some restrictive conditions on G.

Tornehave morphisms III: the reduced Tornehave morphism and the Burnside unit functor

We shall show that a morphism anticipated by Tornehave induces (and helps to explain) Bouc’s isomorphism relating a quotient of the Burnside unit functor (measuring a difference between real and rational representations of finite 2-groups) and a quotient of the kernel of linearization (measuring a difference between rhetorical and rational 2-biset functors). 2000 Mathematics Subject Classificat...
