Brauer had already introduced the defect of a block and opened the way towards a classification by solving all the problems in defects zero and one, and by providing some evidence for the finiteness of the set of blocks with a given defect.

This book contributes to important questions in modern representation theory of finite groups. It introduces and develops the abstract setting of the Frobenius categories and gives the application of the abstract setting to the blocks.

Brauer had already introduced the defect of a block and opened the way towards a classification by solving all the problems in defects zero and one, and by providing some evidence for the finiteness of the set of blocks with a given defect.

for instance, the structure of the source algebra of a nilpotent block, an important fact in block theory, can be obtained as a corollary.The exceptional layout of this bilingual edition featuring 2 columns per page (one English, one Chinese) sharing the displayed mathematical formulas is the joint achievement of the author and A.
