“…This problem has first been studied by Peterson [10], Wood [28], Singer [16], Priddy [14], who pointed out its relationship with some classical problems in homotopy theory such as the cobordism theory of manifolds, the modular representation theory of linear groups, Adams spectral sequences of stable homotopy of spheres, and stable homotopy type of the classifying space of finite groups. Then, this problem was investigated by Wood [28], Carlisle and Wood [1], Silverman [17], Nam [8,9], Mothebe [7], Sum [19,21], Cho'n and Hà [3], Kameko [5,6] and others. Recently, the hit problem and its applications to representations of general linear groups have been presented in the books of Walker and Wood [26,27].…”
