Streszczenie
We describe the representation-infinite blocks $B$ of the group algebras $K G$ of finite groups $G$ over algebraically closed fields $K$ for which all simple modules are periodic with respect to the action of the syzygy operators. In particular, we prove that all such blocks $B$ are periodic algebras of period $4$. This confirms the periodicity conjecture for blocks of group algebras.
