Abstract

Following Craven and Rouquier's computational method to tackle Brou\'e's abelian defect group conjecture, we present two algorithms implementing that procedure in the case of principal blocks of defect DC×CD \cong C_{\ell} \times C_{\ell} for a prime \ell; the first describes a stable equivalence between B0(G)B_0(G) and B0(NG(D))B_0(N_G(D)), and the second tries to lift a such stable equivalence to a perverse derived equivalence. As an application, we show that Brou\'e's conjecture holds for the principal 55-block of the simple group Ω8+(2)\Omega^{+}_8(2).
