Finite group actions on free resolutions and modules arise naturally in many interesting examples. Understanding these actions amounts to describing the terms of a free resolution or the graded components of a module as group representations which, in the non modular case, are completely determined by their characters. With this goal in mind, we introduce a Macaulay2 package for computing characters of finite groups on free resolutions and graded components of finitely generated graded modules over polynomial rings.
