Given a dihedral $2$-group $P$ of order at least~8, we classify the splendid Morita equivalence classes of principal $2$-blocks with defect groups isomorphic to $P$. To this end we construct explicit stable equivalences of Morita type…

We classify principal $2$-blocks of finite groups $G$ with Sylow $2$-subgroups isomorphic to a wreathed $2$-group $C_{2^n}\wr C_2$ with $n\geq 2$ up to Morita equivalence and up to splendid Morita equivalence. As a consequence, we obtain…

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 consider $2$-blocks of finite groups with defect group $D=Q \times R$ and inertial quotient $\mathbb{E}$ where $Q \cong (C_{2^m})^n$, $R \cong C_{2^r}$, and $\mathbb{E}$ contains a Singer cycle of $\operatorname{Aut}(Q)$ (an element of…

L. Puig defined inertial blocks. In this paper, we prove that 2-blocks with defect group $C_{2^{n_1}}\times C_{2^{n_2}}\times...\times C_{2^{n_t}}$ are inertial, where $n_i\geq 2$ for all $i$.

We classify principal blocks of finite groups with semidihedral defect groups up to splendid Morita equivalence. This completes the classification of all principal $2$-blocks of tame representation type up to splendid Morita equivalence and…

We determine the numerical invariants of blocks with defect group D_{2^n}\times C_{2^m}, where D_{2^n} denotes a dihedral group of order 2^n and C_{2^m} denotes a cyclic group of order 2^m. This generalizes Brauer's results for m=0. As a…

We consider a block $B$ of a finite group with defect group $D \cong (C_{2^m})^n$ and inertial quotient $\mathbb{E}$ containing a Singer cycle (an element of order $2^n-1$). This implies $\mathbb{E} = E \rtimes F$, where $E \cong…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and let $\mathcal{O}$ be either $k$ or its ring of Witt vectors $W(k)$. Let $G$ a finite group and $B$ a block of $\mathcal{O}G$ with normal abelian defect group and abelian…

In this paper we prove that Broue's abelian defect group conjecture holds for the Tits group $^2F_4(2)'$. Also we prove that under certain conditions we are able to lift derived equivalences and use this to prove Broue's conjecture for the…

We give a construction that in many cases gives a simple way to construct infinite families of algebras that are not Morita equivalent, but are all derived equivalent to the same block algebra of a finite group, and apply it to some small…

We extend a theorem of Kessar and Linckelmann concerning Morita equivalences and Brauer character bijections between blocks to virtual Morita equivalences. As a corollary, we obtain that Navarro's refinement of Alperin's weight conjecture…

In the representation theory of finite groups, there is a well-known and important conjecture, due to Brou\'e saying that for any prime p, if a p-block A of a finite group G has an abelian defect group P, then A and its Brauer corresponding…

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 show (among other things) that Brauer's k(B)-conjecture holds for defect groups with are central extensions of metacyclic 2-groups by cyclic groups. The same holds for defect groups which contain a central cyclic subgroup of index at…

We consider $p$-blocks with abelian defect groups and in the first part prove a relationship between its Loewy length and that for blocks of normal subgroups of index $p$. Using this, we show that if $B$ is a $2$-block of a finite group…

This is an extended version of my earlier articel "Projective and injective objects in symmetric categorical groups. arXiv:1007.0121v1." Several new facts added, including the material on the derived 2-functors and the proof of the…

Let $b$ be a block with normal abelian defect group and abelian inertial quotient. We prove that every Morita auto-equivalence of $b$ has linear source. We note that this improves upon results of Zhou and also Boltje, Kessar and…

We define a new invariant for a $p$-block, the strong Frobenius number, which we use to address the problem of reducing Donovan's conjecture to normal subgroups of index p. As an application we use the strong Frobenius number to complete…

We introduce group graded basic Morita equivalences between algebras deter- mined by blocks of normal subgroups, and by using the extended Brauer quotient, we show that they induce graded basic Morita equivalences at local levels.
