Green correspondence from Mackey multiplicity

ID: green-correspondence-from-mackey-multiplicity

Let and let be indecomposable with vertex over . The Mackey restriction formula writes , where the vertices in lie in for . None of these subgroups contains an -conjugate of : equality would put in . Every summand of the induction with a -conjugate of vertex contributes a vertex- summand on restriction. Krull-Schmidt decomposition therefore forces exactly one such summand, with multiplicity one. Choosing sources and using transitivity of induction proves the inverse correspondence and preservation of sources.
