Recall that a $p$-group of order $p^ {n} >p^ {3} $ is of maximal class, if its nilpotency class is $n-1$. In this paper, we study the $p$-groups of maximal class. Furthermore, we introduce a subgroup of a $p$-group of maximal class called…
A p-local finite group consists of a finite p-group S, together with a pair of categories which encode ``conjugacy'' relations among subgroups of S, and which are modelled on the fusion in a Sylow p-subgroup of a finite group. It contains…
We introduce the notion of a pro-fusion system on a pro-p group, which generalizes the notion of a fusion system on a finite p-group. We also prove a version of Alperin's Fusion Theorem for pro-fusion systems.
For any prime $p$ and $S$ a $p$-group isomorphic to a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $\mathrm{G}_2(p^n)$ or $\mathrm{PSU}_4(p^n)$ with $n\in\mathbb{N}$, we determine all saturated fusion systems supported on $S$ up to isomorphism.
We give a new, unexpected characterization of saturated fusion systems on a p-group S in terms of idempotents in the p-local double Burnside ring of S that satisfy a Frobenius reciprocity relation, and reformulate fusion-theoretic phenomena…
For $p\in\{2,3\}$ it is known that a saturated $p$-fusion system is realizable if and only if each of its components is realizable by a finite simple group. For primes $p\geq 5$ this is false. Building on work of Broto, M{\o}ller, Oliver…
In this short note we prove that a saturated fusion system admitting some special type of automorphism is nilpotent. This generalizes classical results by J.G. Thompson.
The theory of saturated fusion systems resembles in many parts the theory of finite groups. However, some concepts from finite group theory are difficult to translate to fusion systems. For example, products of normal subsystems with other…
We prove, when $S$ is a $2$-group of order at most $2^9$, that each reduced fusion system over $S$ is the fusion system of a finite simple group and is tame. It then follows that each saturated fusion system over a $2$-group of order at…
In this short note we study the cohomology algebra of saturated fusion systems using finite groups which realize saturated fusion systems and Hochschild cohomology of group algebras. A similar result to a theorem of Alperin is proved for…
We determine, for $p$ odd, all saturated fusion systems on a Sylow $p$-subgroup $S$ of the unitary group $SU_4(p)$ and we prove that they are all realizable by finite groups. In particular, we prove that $S$ does not support any exotic…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $S$ be a $p$-group with a unique elementary abelian subgroup $A$ of index $p$. We classify the simple fusion systems over all such groups $S$ in which $A$ is essential. The resulting list, which depends on…
For any prime $p$ and $S$ a $p$-group isomorphic to a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a rank $2$ simple group of Lie type in characteristic $p$, we determine all saturated fusion systems supported on $S$ up to isomorphism.
We consider saturated fusion systems $\mathcal F$ on a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $\Omega^+_8(2)$ with $O_2(\mathcal F) = 1$. Examples for this are the $2$-fusion systems of $\Omega^+_8(2)$, $\Omega^+_8(2):3$, $P\Omega^+_8(3)$ and…
Let G be group; a finite p-subgroup S of G is a Sylow p-subgroup if every finite p-subgroup of G is conjugate to a subgroup of S. In this paper, we examine the relations between the fusion system over S which is given by conjugation in G…
We determine for which known finite simple groups $G$ and which primes $p$ the $p$-fusion system of $G$ is simple. This means first collecting together the results that were already known (and correcting two errors made in an earlier study…
In this article we study several classes of `small' 2-groups: we complete the classification, started in [Stancu, 2006], of all saturated fusion systems on metacyclic p-groups for all primes p. We consider Suzuki 2-groups, and classify all…
We finish the classification, begun in two earlier papers, of all simple fusion systems over finite nonabelian $p$-groups with an abelian subgroup of index $p$. In particular, this gives many new examples illustrating the enormous variety…
To any block idempotent $b$ of a group algebra $kG$ of a finite group $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$, Puig associated a fusion system and proved that it is saturated if the $k$-algebra $kC_G(P)e$ is split, where $(P,e)$ is a…
We prove that if $\mathcal{E}\trianglelefteq\mathcal{F}$ are saturated fusion systems over $p$-groups $T\trianglelefteq S$, such that $C_S(\mathcal{E})\le T$, and either $Aut_{\mathcal{F}}(T)/Aut_{\mathcal{E}}(T)$ or $Out(\mathcal{E})$ is…
