Modular separating invariants for the dihedral groups D2p
Let \(\mathbb{F}\) be an algebraically closed field of odd prime characteristic p. Using only transfers and norms, we describe a separating set for each indecomposable modular representation of the dihedral groups D2p over the field \(\mathbb{F}\). Our construction is recursive and the size of every separating set depends only on the dimension of the representation.
