On some integral representations of groups and global irreducibility.
Abstract
Arithmetic aspects of integral representations of finite groups and their irreducibility are considered with a focus on globally irreducible representations and their generalizations to arithmetic rings. Certain problems concerning integral irreducible two-dimensional representations over number rings are discussed. Let $K$ be a finite extension of the rational number field and $O_K$ the ring of integers of $K$. Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $GL(2,K)$, the group of $(2 times 2)$-matrices over $K$. We obtain some conditions on $K$ for $G$ to be conjugate to a subgroup of $GL(2,O_K)$.
