Abstract
Let \(G\) be a finite group and \((K,\mathcal {O},k)\) be a \(p\)-modular system which is large enough. Let \(R=\mathcal {O}\) or \(k\). There is a bijection between the blocks of the group algebra \(RG\) and the central primitive idempotents (the blocks) of the so-called cohomological Mackey algebra \(co\mu _{R}(G)\). Here, we introduce the notion of permeable derived equivalence and we prove that a permeable derived equivalence between two blocks of group algebras implies the existence of a derived equivalence between the corresponding blocks of cohomological Mackey algebras. In particular, in the context of Broué’s abelian defect group conjecture, if two blocks are splendidly derived equivalent, then the corresponding blocks of cohomological Mackey algebras are derived equivalent.
