Weight conjectures for fusion systems on an extraspecial group

In a previous paper, we stated and motivated counting conjectures for fusion systems that are purely local analogues of several local-to-global conjectures in the modular representation theory of finite groups. Here we verify some of these conjectures for fusion systems on an extraspecial group of order $p^3$, which contain among them the Ruiz-Viruel exotic fusion systems at the prime $7$. As a byproduct we verify Robinson’s ordinary weight conjecture for principal $p$-blocks of almost simple groups $G$ realizing such (nonconstrained) fusion systems.
