On blocks stably equivalent to a quantum complete intersection of dimension 9 in characteristic 3 and a case of the abelian defect group conjecture

Using a stable equivalence due to Rouquier, we prove that Broue's abelian defect group conjecture holds for 3-blocks of defect 2 whose Brauer correspondent has a unique isomorphism class of simple modules. The proof makes use of the fact, also due to Rouquier, that a stable equivalence of Morita type between self-injective algebras induces an isomorphism between the connected components of the outer automorphism groups of the algebras.

On saturated fusion systems and Brauer indecomposability of Scott modules

Let $p$ be a prime number, $G$ a finite group, $P$ a $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. We study the relationship between the category $\Ff_P(G)$ and the behavior of $p$-permutation $kG$-modules with vertex $P$ under the Brauer construction. We give a sufficient condition for $\Ff_P(G)$ to be a saturated fusion system. We prove that for Scott modules with abelian vertex, our condition is also necessary. In order to obtain our results, we prove a criterion for the categories arising from the data of $(b, G)$-Brauer pairs in the sense of Alperin-Broué and Broué-Puig to be saturated fusion systems on the underlying $p$-group.

Blocks with quaternion defect group over a 2-adic ring: the case \tilde{A}_4

Except for blocks with a cyclic or Klein four defect group, it is not known in general whether the Morita equivalence class of a block algebra over a field of prime characteristic determines that of the corresponding block algebra over a p-adic ring. We prove this to be the case when the defect group is quaternion of order 8 and the block algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 2 is Morita equivalent to $k\tilde A_4$. The main ingredients are Erdmann's classification of tame blocks and work of Cabanes and Picaronny on perfect isometries between tame blocks.
