Modular representations of finite groups in the cohomology of algebraic curves.

In item 8 on the publication list I study the mod p cohomology of an algebraic curve on which the group SL(2,Z/p) acts. The first cohomology group is a module over the group ring Z/p[SL(2,Z/p)]. The structure of this module as a direct sum of indecompossible modules is described. These results are applied in item 15. Much weaker results are obtained for much more complicated groups in item 19.
