Mackey functors, induction from restriction functors and coinduction from transfer functors (Q2456181): Difference between revisions

Using Mackey functors to the problem of finding an explicit version of Brauer's induction theorem, \textit{R. Boltje} [J. Algebra 206, No. 1, 293--343 (1998; Zbl 0913.20001)] introduced the theory of canonical induction. His tools were the lower-plus and the upper-plus constructions, which extend the fixed-quotient and the fixed-point functors, respectively. The purpose of this paper is to show that the so called Boltje's plus constructions are induction and coinduction functors of general module theory. Simple Mackey functors are constructed from simple restriction functors and simple transfer functors.
