Let K be a field of characteristic p > 0, K* the multiplicative group of K and $G=G_p\times B$ a finite group, where $G_p$ is a p-group and B is a p’-group. Denote by $K^{\lambda }G$ a twisted group algebra of G over K with a 2-cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,K*). We give necessary and sufficient conditions for G to be of OTP projective K-representation type, in the sense that there exists a cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,K*) such that every indecomposable $K^{\lambda }G$-module is isomorphic to the outer tensor product V W of an indecomposable $K^{\lambda }{G}_p$-module V and a simple...

Let G be a finite group, K a field of characteristic p > 0, and $K^{\lambda }G$ the twisted group algebra of G over K with a 2-cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,K*). We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $K^{\lambda }G$ to be of semi-wild representation type in the sense of Drozd. We also introduce the concept of projective K-representation type for a finite group (tame, semi-wild, purely semi-wild) and we exhibit finite groups of each type.

Let G be a noncyclic abelian p-group and K be an infinite field of finite characteristic p. For every 2-cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,K*) such that the twisted group algebra $K^{\lambda }G$ is of infinite representation type, we find natural numbers d for which G has infinitely many faithful absolutely indecomposable λ-representations over K of dimension d.

Let S be a commutative complete discrete valuation domain of positive characteristic p, S* the unit group of S, Ω a subgroup of S* and $G=G_p\times B$ a finite group, where $G_p$ is a p-group and B is a p’-group. Denote by $S^{\lambda }G$ the twisted group algebra of G over S with a 2-cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,S*). For Ω satisfying a specific condition, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for G to be of OTP projective (S,Ω)-representation type, in the sense that there exists a cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,Ω) such that every indecomposable...

Let S be a commutative local ring of characteristic p, which is not a field, S* the multiplicative group of S, W a subgroup of S*, G a finite p-group, and $S^{\lambda }G$ a twisted group ring of the group G and of the ring S with a 2-cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,S*). Denote by $In{d}_m\left(S^{\lambda }G\right)$ the set of isomorphism classes of indecomposable $S^{\lambda }G$-modules of S-rank m. We exhibit rings $S^{\lambda }G$ for which there exists a function $f_{\lambda }:\mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{N}$ such that $f_{\lambda }\left(n\right)\ge n$ and $In{d}_{f_{\lambda }\left(n\right)}\left(S^{\lambda }G\right)$ is an infinite set for every natural n > 1. In special cases $f_{\lambda }\left(\mathbb{N}\right)$ contains every natural number m >...

Assume that S is a commutative complete discrete valuation domain of characteristic p, S* is the unit group of S and $G=G_p\times B$ is a finite group, where $G_p$ is a p-group and B is a p’-group. Denote by $S^{\lambda }G$ the twisted group algebra of G over S with a 2-cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,S*). We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $S^{\lambda }G$ to be of OTP representation type, in the sense that every indecomposable $S^{\lambda }G$-module is isomorphic to the outer tensor product V W of an indecomposable $S^{\lambda }{G}_p$-module V and an irreducible $S^{\lambda }B$-module...

Our aim is to determine necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite nilpotent group to have a faithful irreducible projective representation over a field of characteristic p ≥ 0.

Let $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p$ be the ring of p-adic integers, $U\left(\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p\right)$ the unit group of $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p$ and $G=G_p\times B$ a finite group, where $G_p$ is a p-group and B is a p’-group. Denote by $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p^{\lambda }G$ the twisted group algebra of G over $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p$ with a 2-cocycle $\lambda \in Z²(G,U\left(\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p\right))$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p^{\lambda }G$ to be of OTP representation type, in the sense that every indecomposable $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p^{\lambda }G$-module is isomorphic to the outer tensor product V W of an indecomposable $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p^{\lambda }{G}_p$-module V and an irreducible $\mathbb{Z}{̂}_p^{\lambda }B$-module W.

Let G be a finite group, F a field of characteristic p with p||G|, and $F^{\lambda }G$ the twisted group algebra of the group G and the field F with a 2-cocycle λ ∈ Z²(G,F*). We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $F^{\lambda }G$ to be of finite representation type. We also introduce the concept of projective F-representation type for the group G (finite, infinite, mixed) and we exhibit finite groups of each type.
