Relatively stable equivalences of Morita type for blocks

Based on the fact that the relatively stable category of a p-block B is equivalent to the relatively stable category of its Brauer correspondent b as triangulated category, we introduce the notion of relatively stable equivalence of Morita type and show that there is a relatively stable equivalence of Morita type between B and b. Some invariants under stable equivalence of Morita type can be generalized to this relative case. In particular, we put forward the generalized Alperin–Auslander conjecture and prove it in special cases.
