We discuss $G$-actions on $\\mathbf{K}_p$-modules, and propose to study them by analogy with the classical theory of modular representations of $G$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-03-09T13:49:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "finite group", "akhil mathew", "adic integers", "modular representations", "theory spectrum" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
