Brauer tree algebra

ID: brauer-tree-algebra

The basic algebra of a split block with cyclic defect is a Brauer tree algebra: its simple modules are indexed by the edges of a tree, with a distinguished vertex carrying the exceptional multiplicity. For a one-edge tree of multiplicity , its basic algebra is . Its ideals form the chain of powers of , so its unique indecomposable projective is uniserial of length .
