2-modular defect groups of A5

ID: 2-modular-defect-groups-of-a5

In characteristic , a Sylow subgroup of is a Klein four-group, and its normalizer is . Since has one block, Brauer first main theorem gives a unique block of with defect . No order-two subgroup can be a defect group of a block: both and equal , so the Brauer morphisms of a central block idempotent at and at are equal. A nonzero image is , since a group algebra of a p-group in characteristic p is local, and consequently is not maximal among subgroups with nonzero Brauer image.
