Linckelmann and Murphy have classified the Morita equivalence classes of p-blocks of finite groups whose basic algebra has dimension at most 12. We extend their classification to dimension 13 and 14. As predicted by Donovan's Conjecture, we…

We give a classification, up to Morita equivalence, of 2-blocks of quasi-simple groups with abelian defect groups. As a consequence, we show that Donovan's conjecture holds for elementary abelian 2-groups, and that the entries of the Cartan…

We classify all $2$-blocks with abelian defect groups of rank $4$ up to Morita equivalence. The classification holds for blocks over a suitable discrete valuation ring as well as for those over an algebraically closed field. An application…

We give a complete description of the Morita equivalence classes of blocks with elementary abelian defect groups of order 8 and of the derived equivalences between them. A consequence is the verification of Brou\'e's abelian defect group…

We construct blocks of finite groups with arbitrarily large Morita Frobenius numbers, an invariant which determines the size of the minimal field of definition of the associated basic algebra. This answers a question of Benson and Kessar.…

We introduce a new type of equivalence between blocks of finite group algebras called an almost isotypy. An almost isotypy restricts to a weak isotypy in Brou\'{e}'s original definition, and it is slightly weaker than Linckelmann's version.…

The first author has recently classified the Morita equivalence classes of 2-blocks B of finite groups with elementary abelian defect group of order 32. In all but three cases he proved that the Morita equivalence class determines the…

A derived version of Maschke's theorem for finite groups is proved: the derived categories, bounded or unbounded, of all blocks of the group algebra of a finite group are simple, in the sense that they admit no nontrivial recollements. This…

In this paper, we introduce two new families of infinite-dimensional simple Lie algebras and a new family of infinite-dimensional simple Lie superalgebras. These algebras can be viewed as generalizations of the Block algebras.

We classify the Morita equivalence classes of blocks with elementary abelian defect groups of order $16$ with respect to a complete discrete valuation ring with algebraically closed residue field of characteristic two. As a consequence,…

Motivated by understanding the Brou\'e's abelian defect group conjecture from algebraic point of view, we consider the question of how to lift a stable equivalence of Morita type between arbitrary finite dimensional algebras to a derived…

We construct blocks of finite groups with arbitrarily large $\mathcal{O}$-Morita Frobenius numbers. There are no known examples of two blocks defined over $\mathcal{O}$ that are not Morita equivalent but the corresponding blocks defined…

We verify a finiteness conjecture of Feit on sources of simple modules over group algebras for various classes of finite groups related to the symmetric groups.

We classify up to Morita equivalence all blocks whose defect groups are Suzuki $2$-groups. The classification holds for blocks over a suitable discrete valuation ring as well as for those over an algebraically closed field, and in fact…

We characterise the Morita equivalence classes of blocks with extraspecial defect groups $p_+^{1+2}$ for $p \geq 5$, and so show that Donovan's conjecture and the Alperin-McKay conjecture hold for such $p$-groups. For $p=3$ we reduce…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $(K,\mathcal{O},k)$ be a $p$-modular system "large enough". Let $R=\mathcal{O}$ or $k$. There is a bijection between the blocks of the group algebra $RG$ and the central primitive idempotents (the blocks) of…

We show that several Morita equivalence classes of tame algebras do not occur as blocks of finite groups. This refines classifications by Erdmann of classes of blocks with dihedral, semidihedral, and generalised quaternion defect groups. In…

By results of the second author, a source algebra equivalence between two $p$-blocks of finite groups induces an equivalence between the categories of cohomological Mackey functors associated with these blocks, and a splendid derived…

We show, using basic Morita equivalences between block algebras of finite groups, that the Conjecture of H. Sasaki from [9] is true for a new class of blocks called nilpotent covered blocks. When this Conjecture is true we define some…

We describe a general technique to classify blocks of finite groups, and we apply it to determine Morita equivalence classes of blocks with elementary abelian defect groups of order 32 with respect to a complete discrete valuation ring with…
