Hi, let A be a finite dimensional selfinjective algebra. Assume mod A is periodic.That is for every finite dimensional module with no projective summand we have: $ \Omega^{n} (M) =M $ for some n ,where $ \Omega $ is the Hellerfunctor(giving the kernel of a projective cover of M ). When is it true that $ \Omega $ is of finite order,that is $ \Omega^{n} $ is isomorphic as a functor to the identity functor of the stable category of modules without a projective direct summand?(Assume ?(Assume there is a common biggest period for all module if necassary)

Thanks for help
