Abstract
For a symmetric algebra [Formula: see text] over a field [Formula: see text] of characteristic [Formula: see text] Külshammer constructed a descending sequence of ideals of the center of [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] is perfect, this sequence was shown to be an invariant under derived equivalence and for algebraically closed [Formula: see text] the dimensions of their image in the stable center were shown to be invariant under stable equivalence of Morita type. Erdmann classified algebras of tame representation type which may be blocks of group algebras, and Holm classified Erdmann’s list up to derived equivalence. In both classifications, certain parameters occur in the classification, and it was unclear if different parameters lead to different algebras. Erdmann’s algebras fall into three classes, namely of dihedral, semidihedral and of quaternion type. In previous joint work with Holm, we used Külshammer ideals to distinguish classes with respect to these parameters in case of algebras of dihedral and semidihedral type. In the present paper, we determine the Külshammer ideals for algebras of quaternion type and distinguish again algebras with respect to certain parameters.
