The Broué invariant of a Morita equivalence with an endopermutation source

Abstract

A perfect isometry I (introduced by Broué) between two blocks b and c is a frequent phenomenon in the block theory of finite groups. It maps an irreducible character ψ of c to ± an irreducible character of b. Broué proved that the ratio of the codegrees of ψ and I(ψ) is a rational number with p-value zero and that its class in 𝔽p is independent of ψ. This element is called the Broué invariant of I by Boltje. The goal of this paper is to show that if I comes from a Morita equivalence with an endopermutation source V, then, up to a sign, the Broué invariant of I is determined by local data of b and c. Therefore, up to a sign, it is independent of the endopermutation-source Morita equivalence. Moreover, we show that the sign factor is given by the reduction of the rank of V modulo p. As a corollary, we obtain that the Isaacs--Navarro refinement of the Alperin--McKay conjecture holds for inertial blocks.

AB  - A perfect isometry I (introduced by Broué) between two blocks b and c is a frequent phenomenon in the block theory of finite groups. It maps an irreducible character ψ of c to ± an irreducible character of b. Broué proved that the ratio of the codegrees of ψ and I(ψ) is a rational number with p-value zero and that its class in 𝔽_p is independent of ψ. This element is called the Broué invariant of I by Boltje. The goal of this paper is to show that if I comes from a Morita equivalence with an endopermutation source V, then, up to a sign, the Broué invariant of I is determined by local data of b and c. Therefore, up to a sign, it is independent of the endopermutation-source Morita equivalence. Moreover, we show that the sign factor is given by the reduction of the rank of V modulo p. As a corollary, we obtain that the Isaacs--Navarro refinement of the Alperin--McKay conjecture holds for inertial blocks.
