The Mod 2 Cohomology Rings of Rank 3 Simple Groups are Cohen – Macaulay
نویسنده
چکیده
In recent years we have been studying the cohomology rings of the sporadic simple groups and their relations with problems in algebra and homotopy theory. This work was motivated in part by results of D. Quillen [Q3] and J. Carlson [C], connecting H(G;K) (K a field of characteristic p) with the structure of modular representations of G, and also by the connection of finite group theory with stable homotopy theory through the identification B S∞ ≃ Q(S).

THE CONCEPT OF (I; J)-COHEN MACAULAY MODULES
We introduce a generalization of the notion of depth of an ideal on a module by applying the concept of local cohomology modules with respect to a pair of ideals. We also introduce the concept of $(I,J)$-Cohen--Macaulay modules as a generalization of concept of Cohen--Macaulay modules. These kind of modules are different from Cohen--Macaulay modules, as an example shows. Also an art...
متن کاملLocal Cohomology of Segre Product Type Rings
The aim of this paper is to investigate properties of the local cohomology of rings of mixed characteristic that are analogous to Segre products of rings de ned over a eld. The main question is whether the local cohomology can be almost killed in a nite extension (we de ne what this means below). There are two reasons for considering this type of ring. First, there are special properties of the...
متن کاملFinite Simple Groups and Dickson Invariants
In a recent paper [1], Adem, Maginnis and Milgram calculated the mod 2 cohomology of the Mathieu simple group M12. An interesting feature of the answer they obtain is that it is Cohen–Macaulay. There is a subalgebra isomorphic to the rank three Dickson invariants, namely a polynomial ring in generators of degrees 4, 6 and 7, and over this subalgebra the whole cohomology ring is a finitely gener...
متن کاملThe Essential Ideal Is a Cohen–macaulay Module
Let G be a finite p-group which does not contain a rank two elementary abelian p-group as a direct factor. Then the ideal of essential classes in the mod-p cohomology ring of G is a Cohen–Macaulay module whose Krull dimension is the p-rank of the centre of G. This basically answers in the affirmative a question posed by J. F. Carlson (Question 5.4 in [7]).
متن کاملRings with a Local Cohomology Theorem and Applications to Cohomology Rings of Groups
Cohomology rings of various classes of groups have curious duality properties expressed in terms of their local cohomology [2, 3, 12, 4, 5, 6]. We formulate a purely algebraic form of this duality, and investigate its consequences. It is obvious that a Cohen-Macaulay ring of this sort is automatically Gorenstein, and that its Hilbert series therefore satisfies a functional equation, and our mai...
