Corollary 2.4. The representations µ and ν are not equivalent.<br />

Proof. The result follows from Proposition 2.1 and Equation (a) in the previous<br />

lemma. <br />

Corollary 2.5. The representations µ and ν are indecomposable.<br />

Proof. Being ν of rank 3, if decomposable, it must be ν χj1 ⊕ χj2 ⊕ χj3 ,<br />

for 1 ≤ j1, j2, j3 ≤ 3 or ν χj1 ⊕ ρj2 , for 1 ≤ j1, j2 ≤ 3. But Equations<br />

(a), (b) and (c) in Lemma 2.3 contradict both possibilities. The case of µ is<br />

similar. <br />

We had encountered 8 indecomposable representations of Z2 ⊕ Z2 having<br />

no fixed points. The following theorem asserts that there are no more. Recall<br />

that they are given by<br />

Theorem 2.6. Let ρ be an indecomposable integral representation of Z2⊕Z2<br />

having no fixed points. Then ρ is equivalent to one and only one of the<br />

representations in (2.3).<br />

The proof of Theorem 2.6 is elementary but not trivial. In order to make<br />

the paper more readable, we wrote the proof in the forthcoming subsection.<br />

By assuming Theorem 2.6 one can skip the following subsection without<br />

losing the understanding of the whole paper.
