We say that $A$ is Schurian-finite if there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of Schurian $A$-modules, and Schurian-infinite otherwise. By work of Demonet, Iyama and Jasso it is known that Schurian-finiteness is equivalent to $\\tau$-tilting-finiteness, so that we may draw on a wealth of known results in the subject. We prove that if $e\\geq 3$, then principal blocks of type $A$ Hecke algebras are Schurian-finite if and only if they have weight $0$ or $1$. By results of Erdmann and Nakano, this means that these principal blocks are Schurian-finite if and only if they have finite representation type under our assumption on $e$, or equivalently that they are Schurian-infinite if and only if they have wild representation type. Along the way, we also prove a graded version of the Scopes equivalence, which may be of independent interest. If $e=2$ and $p\\ne 2$, then blocks of weight $0$, $1$ or $2$ are Schurian-finite. Again by Erdmann and Nakano, these weight $2$ blocks have infinite tame representation type. When $e=2$, blocks of weight at least $3$ have wild representation type, but our methods cannot determine whether these blocks are Schurian-infinite. Our methods do, however, apply to a large number of other blocks, and we discuss these in the final section.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2022-03-28T11:50:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20C08", "16G10" ], "keywords": [ "hecke algebras", "wild representation type", "schurian-finiteness", "principal blocks", "infinite tame representation type" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 34, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
