Abstract:
Let $\mathbb {F}$ be a field, $q$ a non-zero element of $\mathbb {F}$ and $\mathcal {H}_{n}=\mathcal {H}_{\mathbb {F},q}(\mathfrak {S}_n)$ the Iwahori–Hecke algebra of the symmetric group $\mathfrak {S}_n$. If $B$ is a block of $\mathcal {H}_{n}$ of $e$-weight $3$ and the characteristic of $\mathbb {F}$ is at least $5$, we prove that the decomposition numbers for $B$ are all at most $1$. In particular, the decomposition numbers for a $p$-block of $\mathfrak {S}_n$ of defect $3$ are all at most $1$.References
