Blocks of profinite groups with cyclic defect group

Group Theory 2022-02-23 v2 Representation Theory

Abstract

We demonstrate that the blocks of a profinite group whose defect groups are cyclic have a Brauer tree algebra structure analogous to the case of finite groups. We show further that the Brauer tree of a block with defect group Zp\mathbb{Z}_{p} is of star type.
