Results for the influence of electron-phonon interaction on the cyclotron effective mass and the resonance linewidth in a two-dimensional electron gas are presented. The temperature and magnetic field dependence is studied, and the existence of quantum oscillations is demonstrated. It is shown that the relevant phonon frequency in typical MOS inversion layers is very small so that the magneto-transport properties are temperature-dependent even at a few degrees Kelvin. Results are consistent with the observed temperature, magnetic field and frequency dependence in Si(100) inversion layers.
