Review text

Let \(H\) be a subgroup of a finite group \(G\), \(k\) an algebraically closed field of characteristic \(p>0\) and \(V\) a closed subvariety of the maximal ideal spectrum of the cohomology ring \(H^*(G,k)\). The author gives necessary and sufficient conditions on \(V\) and \(H\) which imply that any \(kG\)-module whose variety is contained in \(V\) must be stably induced from a \(kH\)-module. His proof generalizes some of the arguments of \textit{D. Benson}'s [New York J. Math. 1, 196-205 (1995)] proof of a theorem which asserts that a periodic module whose variety has certain properties must be stably isomorphic to a module induced from a subgroup determined by the variety. Examples are given which show how the theorem can be applied. The results also apply to infinitely generated modules.
