Hiss–Lübeck–Malle-plus conjecture on the planar embedding of the Brauer tree

About 16 years old · traced to

Let GG be a finite reductive group whose principal ℓ\ell-block has cyclic defect, and let h0h_0 be the relevant order of the roots of unity occurring in the block. Let qδq^\delta act on the relevant torus and write its reduction modulo ℓ\ell as an element of the group of h0h_0-th roots of unity. Hiss–Lübeck–Malle-plus conjecture. The ℓ\ell-reduction of qδq^\delta gives a canonical generator of the group of h0h_0-th roots of unity, and the corresponding order induces the cyclic ordering around the exceptional node of the Brauer tree of the principal ℓ\ell-block of GG. This is the proposed completion of the conjecture describing the Brauer tree, determining its planar embedding in cases where that embedding is not explicitly known.
