Abstract:
Let $G$ be a finite group with a cyclic Sylow $p$-subgroup $P$ for some prime $p \geqq 13$. Assume that $G$ is not of type ${L_2}(p)$, and that $G$ has a faithful indecomposable modular representation of degree $d \leqq p$. This paper offers several improvements of the known bound $d \geqq (7p)/10 - 1/2$. In particular, $d \geqq 3(p - 1)/4$. Other bounds are given relative to the order of the center of $G$ and the index of the centralizer of $P$ in its normalizer.References
