Abstract
The principal indecomposable modules of the double cover
2.An of the alternating group over a field of characteristic 2
are enumerated using the partitions of n into distinct parts.
We determine which of these modules afford a non-degenerate
2.An-invariant quadratic form. Our criterion depends on
the alternating sum and the number of odd parts of the
corresponding partition.
