Abstract

Broué's abelian defect conjecture suggests a deep link between the module categories of a block of a group algebra and its Brauer correspondent, viz. that they should be derived equivalent. We are able to verify Broué's conjecture for the Hall–Janko group, even its double cover $2.J_2$, as well as for $U_3(4)$ and ${\rm Sp}_4(4)$. In fact we verify Rickard's refinement to Broué's conjecture and show that the derived equivalence can be chosen to be a splendid equivalence for these examples.
