The Derived $l$-Modular Unipotent Block of $p$-adic $\mathrm{GL}_n$
Abstract
For a non-Archimedean local field of residue cardinality , we give an explicit classical generator for the bounded derived category of finitely generated unipotent representations of over an algebraically closed field of characteristic . The generator has an explicit description that is much simpler than any known progenerator in the underived setting. This generalises a previous result of the author in the case where and is odd dividing , and provides a triangulated equivalence between and the category of perfect complexes over the dg algebra of dg endomorphisms of a projective resolution of . This dg algebra can be thought of as a dg-enhanced Schur algebra. As an intermediate step, we also prove the analogous result for the case where is a finite field.
