Non-negligible summands in tensor powers of some modular representations of finite $p$-groups

Kent B. Vashaw, Justin Zhang

Let $p>0$ be a prime, $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $\mathbb{k}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. Dave Benson has conjectured that if $p=2$ and $V$ is an odd-dime…
