Brauer height-set conjectures for nonabelian defect groups
Brauer height-set conjectures for nonabelian defect groups
Let be a finite group, let be a prime, and let be a -block of with defect group . Write for the set of heights of the irreducible characters in , and define and by
Brauer height-set conjectures. The derived length is bounded in terms of ; is bounded in terms of ; and is bounded in terms of . Moreover, the bounds in the first and third assertions should be logarithmic. The source reports proofs for general linear groups and symmetric groups, but says that the conjectures have not been widely explored in general.
