2009 Topology Seminar - 10
- Date: 04/22/2009
Lecturer(s):
Jon Carlson (University of Geogia)
Location:
University of British Columbia
Topic:
Modulos of constant Jordan type
Description:
This is joint work with Eric Friedlander, Julia Pevtsova and Andrei
Suslin. We consider modules over an elementary abelian group on which
every element in the radical, but not the square of the radical, has
the same Jordan canonical form. Such modules can be used to define
bundles on projective spaces and Grassmanians. They have many
interesting properties. We can get them as submodules of any module of
the group algebra. In this talk I will discuss some of the
constructions and their generalizations.
