    • Biset functors and brauer's induction theorem 

      Öğüt, İsmail Alperen (Bilkent University, 2014)
      We introduce two algebras on the endomorphism ring of the direct sum of character rings of groups from some collection. We prove the equality of these algebras to simplify a step in the proof of Brauer’s Induction Theorem. ...
    • Blocks of quotients of mackey algebras 

      Dar, Elif Doğan (Bilkent University, 2015)
      We review a theorem by Boltje and K¨ulshammer which states that under certain circumstances the endomorphism ring EndRG(RX) has only one block. We study the double Burnside ring, the Burnside ring and the transformations ...
    • Canonical induction for trivial source rings 

      Büyükçolak, Yasemin (Bilkent University, 2013)
      We discuss the canonical induction formula for some special Mackey functors by following the construction of Boltje. These functors are the ordinary and modular character rings and the trivial source rings. Making use ...
    • A correspondence of simple alcahestic group functors 

      Coşkun, Olcay (Bilkent University, 2008)
      Representation theory of finite groups associates two classical constructions to a group G, namely the representation ring of G and the Burnside ring of G. These rings share a special structure that comes from three ...
    • Fusion systems in group representation theory 

      Tuvay, İpek (Bilkent University, 2013)
      Results on the Mackey category MF corresponding to a fusion system F and fusion systems defined on p-permutation algebras are our main concern. In the first part, we give a new proof of semisimplicity of MF over C by ...
    • Green correspondence for Mackey functors 

      Uç, Mehmet (Bilkent University, 2008)
      The Green corespondence for modules of group algebras was introduced by Green in 1964. A version for Mackey functors was introduced by Sasaki in 1982. Sasaki’s characterization of Mackey functor correspondence was based ...
    • Inductions, restrictions, evaluations, and sunfunctors of Mackey functors 

      Yaraneri, Ergün (Bilkent University, 2008)
    • Mackey decomposition for Brauer pairs 

      Okur, Utku (Bilkent University, 2020-08)
      For a finite group G and an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p, a k-algebra A with a G-action is called a G-algebra. A pair (P,c) such that P is a p-subgroup of G and c is a block idempotent of the G-algebra ...
    • Mackey group categories and their simple functors 

      Yaylıoğlu, Volkan Dağhan (Bilkent University, 2012)
      Constructing the Mackey group category M using axioms which are reminiscent of fusion systems, the simple RM-functors (the simple functors from the R-linear extension of M to R-modules, where R is a commutative ring) can ...
    • Modular representations and monomial burnside rings 

      Coşkun, Olcay (Bilkent University, 2004)
      We introduce canonical induction formulae for some character rings of a finite group, some of which follows from the formula for the complex character ring constructed by Boltje. The rings we will investigate are the ...
    • The monomial Burnside functor 

      Okay, Cihan (Bilkent University, 2009)
      Given a finite group G, we can realize the permutation modules by the linearization map defined from the Burnside ring B(G) to the character ring of G, denoted AK(G). But not all KG-modules are permutation modules. To ...
    • On monomial Burnside rings 

      Yaraneri, Ergün (Bilkent University, 2003)
      This thesis is concerned with some different aspects of the monomial Burnside rings, including an extensive, self contained introduction of the A−fibred G−sets, and the monomial Burnside rings. However, this work has two ...
    • On some of the simple composition factors of the biset functor of P-permutation modules 

      Karagüzel, Çisil (Bilkent University, 2016-07)
      Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, which is a prime, and C denote the field of complex numbers. Given a finite group G, letting ppk(G) denote the Grothendieck group of p-permutation kG-modules, we ...
    • On the exponential map of the Burnside ring 

      Yaman, Ayşe (Bilkent University, 2002)
      We study the exponential map of the Burnside ring. We prove the equivalence of the three different characterizations of this map and examine the surjectivity in order to describe the elements of the unit group of the ...
    • The pandemic fusion system for endomorphism algebras of p-permutation modules 

      Nika, Andi (Bilkent University, 2018-09)
      During the 1980's Puig developed a new approach to modular representation theory, introducing new p-local invariants and thereby extending Green's work on G-algebras. We investigate the Puig category, commenting on its ...
    • Real monomial Burnside rings and a decomposition of the the tom Dieck map 

      Tuvay, İpek (Bilkent University, 2009)
      This thesis is mainly concerned with a decomposition of the reduced tom Dieck map die : f A(RG) → B(G) × into two maps die+ and die− of the real monomial Burnside ring. The key idea is to introduce a real Lefschetz ...
    • Simple functors of admissible linear categories 

      Demirel, Merve (Bilkent University, 2013)
      We review the notion of an admissible R-linear category for a commutative unital ring R and we prove the classification theorem for simple functors of such a category by Barker-Boltje which states that there is a bijective ...
