Abstract

Let us consider a connected reductive algebraic group G, defined over the finite field F q with corresponding Frobenius morphism F. We are concerned here with properties of finite-dimensional modules for the finite group G F over a sufficiently large field k of characteristic ℓ where ℓ is a prime not dividing q.
