Abstract: Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2, and let W be the ring of infinite Witt vectors over k. Suppose D is a dihedral 2-group. We prove that the universal deformation ring R(D,V) of an endo-trivial kD-module V is always isomorphic to W[mathbbZ/2imesmathbbZ/2]. As a consequence we obtain a similar result for modules V with stable endomorphism ring k belonging to an arbitrary nilpotent block with defect group D. This confirms for such V conjectures on the ring structure of the universal deformation ring of V which had previously been shown for V belonging to cyclic blocks or to blocks with Klein four defect groups.
