Abstract

For a p-block B of a finite group G with defect group D Olsson conjectured that k0(B) ≤ |D : D '|, where k0(B) is the number of characters in B of height 0 and D ' denotes the commutator subgroup of D. Brauer deduced Olsson's Conjecture in the case where D is a dihedral 2-group using the fact that certain algebraically conjugate subsections are also conjugate in G. We generalize Brauer's argument for arbitrary primes p and arbitrary defect groups. This extends two results by Robinson. For p > 3 we show that Olsson's Conjecture is satisfied for defect groups of p-rank 2 and for minimal non-abelian defect groups.

Brauer deduced Olsson's Conjecture in the case where D is a dihedral 2-group using the fact that certain algebraically conjugate subsections are also conjugate in G. We generalize Brauer's argument for arbitrary primes p and arbitrary defect groups. This extends two results by Robinson.
