The Roquette category of finite p -groups

Serge Bouc (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let p be a prime number. This paper introduces the Roquette category p of finite p -groups, which is an additive tensor category containing all finite p -groups among its objects. In p , every finite p -group P admits a canonical direct summand P , called the edge of P . Moreover P splits uniquely as a direct sum of edges of Roquette p -groups, and the tensor structure of p can be described in terms of such edges. The main motivation for considering this category is that the additive functors from p to...

The universal functorial Lefschetz invariant

Wolfgang Lück (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We introduce the universal functorial Lefschetz invariant for endomorphisms of finite CW-complexes in terms of Grothendieck groups of endomorphisms of finitely generated free modules. It encompasses invariants like Lefschetz number, its generalization to the Lefschetz invariant, Nielsen number and L 2 -torsion of mapping tori. We examine its behaviour under fibrations.
