Abstract
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. Let H be a normal subgroup of odd index, prime to p, in a finite group G. We prove that an indecomposable kH-module G-stable and selfdual can always be extended to G. If the kH-module is irreducible, only the odd index hypothesis is required.
There exists an exact sequence which is the obstruction to extending the action in such a way that the resulting kG-module is still selfdual. This enables us to make our results more precise.
