We study Specht modules S(n-2,2) and simple modules D(n-2,2) for symmetric groups 𝔖n of degree n over a field of characteristic 2. In particular, we determine the vertices of these modules, and also provide some information on their sources.

AbstractG. Navarro raised the question of when two vertices of two indecomposable modules over a finite group algebra generate a Sylow p-subgroup. The present note provides a sufficient criterion for this to happen. This generalises a result by Navarro for simple modules over finite p-solvable groups, which is the main motivation for this note.

AbstractSeveral results are obtained relating to the modular representation theory of the general linear group GLn in the defining characteristic p > 0. In Section 1, embeddings of certain simple modules in symmetric powers of the natural module, or in tensor products of truncated symmetric powers, are constructed. In Section 2, cases are found where simple quotientsof Schur modules H0(λ) can be constructed by extending theidea of truncation to these modules in a natural way. In Section 3, the characters of those simple modules which can be constructed as twisted tensor products of truncated symmetric powers are expressed in terms of Schur functions.
