Let $r \\geq 1$ and set $q = p^r$. We show that if a rational $G$-module $M$ is projective over the $r$-th Frobenius kernel $G_r$ of $G$, then it is also projective when considered as a module for the finite subgroup $\\Gfq$ of $\\Fq$-rational points in $G$. This salvages a theorem of Lin and Nakano (\\emph{Bull.\\ London Math.\\ Soc.} 39 (2007) 1019--1028). We also show that the corresponding statement need not hold when the group $G$ is replaced by the unipotent radical $U$ of a Borel subgroup of $G$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-07-20T14:28:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20G10", "20C33", "20G05", "17B56" ], "keywords": [ "finite chevalley groups", "projective modules", "simply-connected semisimple algebraic group scheme", "th frobenius kernel", "finite subgroup" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1204.0729D" } } }
