On stable equivalences of Morita type with twisted diagonal vertices

Abstract

We give a new proof, by using simplified terminology and notation, to a result of Puig stating that if a bimodule of two block algebras of finite groups over an algebraically closed field induces a stable equivalence of Morita type and has a twisted diagonal vertex, then it has an endopermutation module as a source. We also extend this result to arbitrary fields under a mild assumption.
