In this paper, we prove that a refinement of the Alperin-McKay Conjecture for $p$-blocks of finite groups, formulated by I. M. Isaacs and G. Navarro in 2002, holds for all covering groups of the symmetric and alternating groups, whenever…

Sp\"ath showed that the Alperin-McKay conjecture in the representation theory of finite groups holds if the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay condition holds for all finite simple groups. In a previous article, we showed that the…

The Alperin-McKay conjecture is a longstanding open conjecture in the representation theory of finite groups. Sp\"ath showed that the Alperin-McKay conjecture holds if the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay (iAM) condition holds for all…

In this paper we consider the inductive Alperin--McKay condition for isolated blocks of groups of Lie type $B$ and $C$. This finishes the verification of the inductive condition for groups of this type.

In this paper, we prove one direction of a conjecture of Navarro-Rizo-Schaeffer Fry-Vallejo positing an algorithm to determine from the character table whether a finite group has $2$-generated Sylow $3$-subgroups. This gives further…

As a sequel to [CS13b], we verify the so-called inductive AM-condition introduced in [Sp12] for simple groups of type A and blocks with maximal defect. This is part of the program set up to verify the Alperin-McKay conjecture through its…

The Alperin--McKay conjecture relates irreducible characters of a block of an arbitrary finite group to those of its $p$-local subgroups. A refinement of this conjecture was stated by the author in a previous paper. We prove that this…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $(K,\mathcal{O},k)$ be a $p$-modular system. Let $R=\mathcal{O}$ or $k$. There is a bijection between the blocks of the group algebra and the blocks of the so-called $p$-local Mackey algebra $\mu_{R}^{1}(G)$.…

In this paper, we show that the Alperin-McKay conjecture holds for 2-blocks of maximal defect. A major step in the proof is the verification of the inductive Alperin-McKay condition for the principal 2-block of groups of Lie type in odd…

In this paper we define the notion of local rank for fusion systems so as to reformulate the Alperin's weight conjecture in the framework of block fusion systems following the work by Kn\"orr and Robinson.

This paper proposes a conjectural framework for Alperin's Main Problem of Block Theory from 1976. The character sets considered here are defined by nonvanishing at given elements, not only by degree conditions. From this point of view,…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$ and let $\mathbb{F}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We consider Alperin's weight conjecture (over $k$) from the point of view of (stable)…

In this paper local polynomials on Abelian groups are characterized by a "local" Fr\'echet-type functional equation. We apply our result to generalize Montel's Theorem and to obtain Montel-type theorems on commutative groups.

We consider clones on countable sets. If such a clone has quasigroup operations, is locally closed and countable, then there is a function $f : \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ such that the $n$-ary part of $C$ is equal to the $n$-ary part of…

We prove the Alperin-McKay Conjecture for all $p$-blocks of finite groups with metacyclic, minimal non-abelian defect groups. These are precisely the metacyclic groups whose derived subgroup have order $p$. In the special case $p=3$, we…

We develop local forms of Ramsey-theoretic dichotomies for block sequences in infinite-dimensional vector spaces, analogous to Mathias' selective coideal form of Silver's theorem for analytic partitions of $[\mathbb{N}]^\infty$. Under large…

In a recent paper, Gabriel Navarro and Pham Huu Tiep show that the so-called Alperin Weight Conjecture can be verified via the Classification of the Finite Simple Groups, provided any simple group fulfills a very precise list of conditions.…

In this paper, we prove the local converse conjecture of Jacquet over p-adic fields for GL(n) using Bessel functions.

We define the block neighborhood of a reversible CA, which is related both to its decomposition into a product of block permutations and to quantum computing. We give a purely combinatorial characterization of the block neighborhood, which…

This survey is about old and new results about the modular representation theory of finite reductive groups with a strong emphasis on local methods. This includes subpairs, Brauer's Main Theorems, fusion, Rickard equivalences. In the…
