Abstract

We give an algorithm for working out the indecomposable direct

summands in a Krull–Schmidt decomposition of a tensor product of two simple

modules for G = SL3 in characteristics 2 and 3. It is shown that there is a

finite family of modules such that every such indecomposable summand is

expressible as a twisted tensor product of members of that family.

Along the way we obtain the submodule structure of various Weyl and

tilting modules. Some of the tilting modules that turn up in characteristic

3 are not rigid; these seem to provide the first example of non-rigid tilting

modules for algebraic groups. These non-rigid tilting modules lead to examples

of non-rigid projective indecomposable modules for Schur algebras, as shown

in the Appendix.

Higher characteristics (for SL3) will be considered in a later paper.
