Realising permutations as selfinjective quiver algebras

Take a quiver with $n$ vertices, and one arrow $i\to j$ for each pair $(i,j)$ of vertices, including those where $i=j$. Impose the following relations: all paths of length greater than two are zero …

How do morphism of Groups be the same as the Group-Representation

I'll assume that $k$ is not the zero ring. If $u$ is not injective, then $\tilde{u}$ is not essentially surjective, since no faithful representation of $G_1$ is in the image. Suppose $u$ is injectiv …

Characterising the regular representation for elementary abelian p-groups

Yes. The second condition says that the socle $S=\operatorname{soc}(V)$ of $V$ (i.e., the largest semisimple submodule) is one-dimensional, and the injective hull of $V$ is the same as the injective …

global dimension

Yes, $A^G$ must have finite global dimension, as it has the same kind of triangular form as $A$. The Jacobson radical of $A$ is $$J(A)=\begin{pmatrix} 0 & M_{1,2} & \dots & M_{1,r} \\ 0 & 0 & …

Is the invariant algebra semisimple

Yes (and characteristic zero isn't necessary). Since $G$ is linearly reductive, $A$ is a direct sum $A^G\oplus B$ as $G$-modules, where $B$ is the sum of all non-trivial irreducible $G$-submodules of …

Standard selfinjective algebras and Auslander-Reiten quiver

If $A$ is representation-infinite, then $\Gamma_A$ has more than one component, and so if its mesh category were equivalent to the category of indecomposable modules, the indecomposable modules could …

Question on trivial extension algebras

If $S$ is a finite dimensional algebra, and $M$ a finite dimensional $S$-bimodule, and if we construct the algebras $A=S\ltimes M$ and $B=S\ltimes DM$, then the trivial extension algebras $T(A)=A\ltim …

Are modular representations isomorphic if they're isomorphic after raising to the pth power?

Here's one way of constructing counterexamples for finite groups. Suppose $M$ is a periodic $kG$-module with period $p$: i.e., the $p$th syzygy $\Omega^pM$ is isomorphic to $M$, but $\Omega M\not\con …

Can the free module in the representation ring be characterised this way?

Suppose $U$ has this property. Let $V=FG$ and let $W$ be the direct sum of $|G|$ copies of the trivial representation. Then $V\otimes U$ is free of rank $\dim(U)$, $W\otimes U$ is a direct sum of $|G| …

Is a so-called $n$-fold almost split extension equivalent to an $n$-almost split sequence?

I don't know exactly the relationship between the two definitions, but they're not the same, as the first one depends only on the class in $\operatorname{Ext}^n_\Lambda(C,A)$ but the second doesn't. F …

Local endomorphism rings and indecomposable modules

Probably there are no other examples. The paper Brenner, Sheila; Ringel, Claus Michael, Pathological modules over tame rings, J. Lond. Math. Soc., II. Ser. 14, 207-215 (1976). ZBL0356.16010. doesn' …

Classification of certain selfinjective algebras

I don't know a classification, but another example is the group algebra (over a field $K$ of characteristic $2$) of the quaternion group $Q_8$ (or more generally any generalized quaternion group).

Connection between representations of different orientations of graph

In the paper V.G. Kac, "Infinite root systems, representations of graphs and invariant theory", Invent. Math. 56, 57-92 (1980), Kac shows that the dimension vectors of indecomposable representatio …

Character Values for Alternating Groups of degree $\geq 7$

As Geoff thought, the answer is contained in James and Kerber (it's Theorem 2.5.13 in "The Representation Theory of the Symmetric Group", Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications vol. 16, 1981 …

A question on Hochschild cohomology

There are examples of non-semisimple algebras with trivial Hochschild cohomology: for example, the path algebra $C$ of a quiver whose underlying graph is a tree. Also, for finite dimensional algebras …
