Abstract
Characteristic-free representation theory has been studied by many people over the past fifteen years in many different ways for many different reasons. In the mid-seventies, Carter and Lusztig [6] defined the Weyl modules for the general linear group over any field, independent of characteristic. Towber, a little later [9], defined the Schur and Weyl modules for GLn over an arbitrary commutative ring. Using standard monomial theory, Lakshmibai, Musili and Seshadri [8] defined the Schur modules for the classical groups over any commutative ring.
