Modules with finitely generated cohomology

David J. Benson, Jon F. Carlson

Let be a finite group and a field of characteristic . It is conjectured in a paper of the first author and John Greenlees that the thick subcategory of the stab…

Modules with finitely generated cohomology, and singularities of

David J. Benson, John Greenlees

Let be a finite group and a field of characteristic . We conjecture that if is a -module with finitely generated as a module over then as a…

The socle of the group algebra of a finite -group

David J. Benson

Let be a finite -group, and an automorphism of the group algebra . Then fixes the socle of pointwise. More generally, if is a fi…

Centralisers of finite groups in locally finite simple groups

David J. Benson

We answer in the negative a question of Hartley about representations of finite groups, by constructing examples of finite simple groups with arbitrarily large representations whos…

Classifying spaces of finite groups of tame representation type

David J. Benson

Thanks to the work of Karin Erdmann, we know a great deal about the representation theory of blocks of finite groups with tame representation type. Our purpose here is to examine t…

Hochschild cohomology of symmetric groups in low degrees

David Benson, Radha Kessar, Markus Linckelmann

We compute the dimensions of the Hochschild cohomology of symmetric groups over prime fields in low degrees. This involves us in studying some partition identities and generating f…
