The dimension of the representation ring

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. I am trying to characterize the algebraic properties of the representation ring $R(G)$ of $G$. In the case of the $n$-torus, the representation ring $R(T)$ is ...

'Noether normalization' for finite group schemes

Throughout let $p$ be a prime, and let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p$. Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. Such a $G$ can always be embedded as a closed subgroup of $SU(n)$ for some $n$. This ...

Koszul complex for non-Koszul algebras

Let $A$ be a graded, connected, locally finite, quadratic algebra over a field $k$; that is, $A$ may be presented as $T(V)/I$, where $V = A_1$ is a finite dimensional $k$ vector space, and the ideal $...

Quotients in Sums of Rings

Suppose we are given a commutative ring $R$ with a unit. Suppose that $R$ is the direct product of two rings $R\cong R_1\times R_2$. It's straightforward to show that any ideal $I\subset R$ maps to an ...
