DESCRIPTION:Fusion systems are structures that encode the properties of co
 njugation between $p$-subgroups of a group\, for $p$ any prime number. It 
 is always possible to define the saturated fusion system realized by a fin
 ite group on one of its Sylow $p$-subgroups. However\, not all saturated f
 usion systems can be realized in this way: when this is the case\, we say 
 that the fusion system is exotic. The understanding of the behavior of exo
 tic fusion systems (in particular at odd primes) is still an important ope
 n problem.\nIt turns out that many of the known exotic fusion systems are 
 defined on $p$-groups of maximal nilpotency class. In this talk we will pr
 esent the classification of saturated fusion systems on $p$-groups of maxi
 mal nilpotency class\, a joint work with C. Parker.Some of the techniques 
 involved in the proof were developed during the first months of the GRA Pr
 ogramme in 2020.
