Abstract

Modern computers and computer algebra systems yield powerful tools for mathematicalresearch. In this article, some applications of computer algebra packages and scientific software in the theory of modular representations of finite groups are described. Ten mathematical problems are mentioned, the solutions of which require new algorithms and most likely extensions of the present mathematical software. It is hoped that the corresponding computer experiments stimulate further mathematical research. Furthermore, they will show the importance of the development of computer algebra for theoretical mathematics.
