Throughout, K denotes a commutative ring and G a finite group. Furthermore, allKG- modules considered are assumed to beleftmodules and free of finite rank overK.
A. Exercises for the tutorial.
Exercise1.
Let H ≤ J ≤ G. LetU be a KG-module and letV be a KJ-module. Prove the following statements.
(a) IfUisH-projective thenUisJ-projective.
(b) IfUis a direct summand ofV↑G
J andVisH-projective, thenUisH-projective.
(c) For anyg∈G,UisH-projective if and only if gUis gH-projective.
(d) IfUisH-projective andWis anyKG-module, thenU⊗KWisH-projective.
[Hint: use part (f) of Proposition 25.4.]
Exercise2.
AssumeKis a field of characteristcp>0 and letA,B,C,U,VbeKG-modules. Prove that:
