Minimal extensions of Tannakian categories in positive characteristic

We extend \cite[Theorem 4.5]{DGNO} and \cite[Theorem 4.22]{LKW} to positive characteristic (i.e., to the finite, not necessarily fusion, case). Namely, we prove that if $\D$ is a finite non-degenerate braided tensor category over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$, containing a Tannakian Lagrangian subcategory $\Rep(G)$, where $G$ is a finite $k$-group scheme, then $\D$ is braided tensor equivalent to $\Rep(D^ω(G))$ for some $ω\in H^3(G,\mathbb{G}_m)$, where $D^ω(G)$ denotes the twisted double of $G$ \cite{G2}. We then prove that the group $\mathcal{M}_{\rm ext}(\Rep(G))$ of minimal extensions of $\Rep(G)$ is isomorphic to the group $H^3(G,\mathbb{G}_m)$. In particular, we use \cite{EG2,FP} to show that $\mathcal{M}_{\rm ext}(\Rep(μ_p))=1$, $\mathcal{M}_{\rm ext}(\Rep(α_p))$ is infinite, and if $Ø(Γ)^*=u(\g)$ for a semisimple restricted $p$-Lie algebra $\g$, then $\mathcal{M}_{\rm ext}(\Rep(Γ))=1$ and $\mathcal{M}_{\rm ext}(\Rep(Γ\times α_p))\cong \g^{*(1)}$.
