Abstract

For a pp-permutation equivalence between two block algebras of finite groups, we introduce new square diagrams that link the pp-permutation equivalence via the Brauer construction to local equivalences between stabilizers of corresponding Brauer pairs. These diagrams can be viewed as lifts of the square diagrams in the definition of isotypies. The proof of the commutativity requires new technical tools, namely a formula for how taking fixed points commutes with extended tensor products of finite sets with group actions and how the Brauer construction commutes with taking extended tensor products of pp-permutation modules. These fundamental formulas, generalizing earlier results by Boltje-Danz and by Boltje-Perepelitsky, should be of independent interest.
