This is joint work with Srikanth Iyengar on results that connects work of Mike Hopkins in homotopy theory and commutative algebra with a theorem of Dave Benson, Jeremy Rickard and myself on group representations. I will spend most of the lecture talking about what the words mean and why we are interested in the results.
