Over a splitting field for finite group representations of characteristic 2, put a=(123). The block of a group algebra idempotents of kS3​ are b0​=1+a+a2 and b1​=a+a2. Their block algebras are b0​kS3​≅kC2​ and b1​kS3​≅M2​(k), with a defect group of a block given by C2​ and 1, respectively. The first is a local ring; for the second, the representation a↦diag(ω,ω2), (12)↦(01​10​) generates the full matrix algebra. The Cartan matrix of a group algebra is diag(2,1), and the ordinary trivial, sign, and two-dimensional characters give decomposition matrix (110​001​).
