Locally finite derivations and modular coinvariants
2016
We consider a finite dimensional $\kk G$-module $V$ of a $p$-group $G$ over a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. We describe a generating set for the corresponding Hilbert Ideal. In case $G$ is cyclic this yields that the algebra $\kk[V]_G$ of coinvariants is a free module over its subalgebra generated by $\kk G$-module generators of $V^*$. This subalgebra is a quotient of a polynomial ring by pure powers of its variables. The coinvariant ring was known to have this property only when $G$ was cyclic of prime order, \cite{SezerCoinv}. In addition, we show that if $G$ is the Klein 4-group and $V$ does not contain an indecomposable summand isomorphic to the regular module, then the Hilbert Ideal is a complete intersection, extending a result of the second author and R. J. Shank \cite{SezerShank}.
