One of the major open questions in the representation theory of finite groups over a field k of characteristic p > 0 is Donovan’s conjecture, which constrains the module category of kG in terms of the Sylow p-subgroups of G. I will talk about some recent results on this conjecture and the closely related Picard groups of group algebras.
