Brauer relations for finite groups in the ring of semisimplified modular representations

Abstract

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ be a prime. We study the kernel of the map, between the Burnside ring of $G$ and the Grothendieck ring of ${\mathbb{F}}_p[G]$-modules, taking a $G$-set to its associated permutation module. We are able, for all finite groups, to classify the primitive quotient of the kernel; that is for each $G$, the kernel modulo elements coming from the kernel for proper subquotients of $G$. We are able to identify exactly which groups have non-trivial primitive quotient and we give generators for the primitive quotient in the soluble case.
