Broué's conjecture for the nonprincipal block of \(\text{SL}(2,q)\) with full defect. (Q1028301): Difference between revisions

Broué's Abelian defect group conjecture states the following: let \(G\) be a finite group, \(k\) an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic \(p\). Then any block of \(kG\) with Abelian defect group \(P\) is derived equivalent to its Brauer correspondent in \(kN_G(P)\), where \(N_G(P)\) is the normalizer of \(P\) in \(G\). This paper presents a proof of this conjecture for the nonprincipal block (with full defect) of \(\text{SL}(2,p^n)\) for all positive integers \(n\). The methods employed follow those in a preprint of \textit{T. Okuyama} from the year 2000, in which the conjecture is proved for the principal block of \(\text{SL}(2,p^n)\). In particular, the proof uses tilting complexes and a certain ordering on equivalence classes of simple modules in the nonprincipal block.
