On blocks of defect two and one simple module, and Lie algebra structure of HH¹

Let $k$ be a field of odd prime characteristic $p$. We calculate the Lie algebra structure of the first Hochschild cohomology of a class of quantum complete intersections over $k$. As a consequence, we prove that if $B$ is a defect $2$-block of a finite group algebra $kG$ whose Brauer correspondent $C$ has a unique isomorphism class of simple modules, then a basic algebra of $B$ is a local algebra which can be generated by at most $2\sqrt I$ elements, where $I$ is the inertial index of $B$, and where we assume that $k$ is a splitting field for $B$ and $C$.
