Notes on Cohomological Finite Generation for Finite Group Schemes

Abstract

These are extended notes based on lectures given by Vincent Franjou, Paul Sobaje, Peter Symonds and Antoine Touzé at the Master Class on New Developments in Finite Generation of Cohomology that took place at Bielefeld University in September 2023. Their aim to give a panoramic overview of van der Kallen's recent result on the finite generation of cohomology for finite group schemes over an arbitrary Noetherian base, bringing together the many papers that this theorem relies on, and supplying the necessary background and exposition.

A Course on Lie algebras and Chevalley groups

These are expanded notes from graduate courses about Lie algebras and Chevalley groups held at the University of Stuttgart. In the 1950s Chevalley showed how linear groups over arbitrary fields could be obtained~ -- ~by a uniform procedure~ -- ~from the simple Lie algebras over $\C$ occurring in the Cartan--Killing classification. Together with subsequent variations, Chevalley's work had a profound and long-lasting impact on group theory and Lie theory in general. Classical, and widely used references are the lectures notes by Steinberg (1967) and the monograph by Carter (1972). Our aim here is to present a self-contained introduction to the theory of Chevalley groups, based on recent simplifications arising from Lusztig's fundamental theory of ``canonical bases''. A further feature of our text is that we explicitly incorporate algorithmic methods in our treatment, both for the handling of substantial examples and regarding some aspects of the general theory. Eventually, this may turn into a book project.

On the p-part of the conductor of a generalised character

We show that the $p$-part of the conductor of a generalised character of a finite group is equal to the conductor of its generalised decomposition numbers. We use this to show that $p$-parts of conductors of irreducible characters are preserved under isotypies and perfect isometries that arise in the context of stable equivalences of Morita type with endopermutation source. We apply this to blocks with abelian defect and Frobenius inertial quotient.

On the triviality of inhomogeneous deformations of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2n)$

We specify a symmetrized mixed-oscillator deformation family of $B(0,n)=\operatorname{osp}(1|2n)$, with even mixed coefficients and one odd square-zero parameter. For every $n\geq1$, we derive its bracket from a faithful oscillator realization and exhibit an odd cochain whose coboundary is the recovered deformation coefficient. The resulting even change of generators is an exact isomorphism over the exterior parameter algebra. For $n=1$, the cochain agrees with the normalization of Bakalov-Sullivan. We give the source relations and the even-central specialization explicitly, together with a Lean 4 formalization.
