Let $$J$$ be a Dynkin diagram and $$\theta$$ an automorphism of $$J$$. Let $$\mathfrak g$$ be the simple Lie algebra over $$\mathbb{C}$$ with Dynkin diagram $$J$$ and $$\theta$$ be the automorphism of $$\mathfrak g$$ corresponding to $$\theta$$. Let $$I = J/\theta$$ denote the Dynkin diagram of $${\mathfrak g}^ \theta$$ and let $$g$$ be the number of Coxeter duals of $${\mathfrak g}^ \theta$$.
In this paper, for each Chevalley group of the type associated with $$I$$ over a field of characteristic $$p$$, a rigid tensor category $${\mathcal P}_{\text{mod}}$$ is defined. Moreover, it is shown that the Grothendieck ring of $${\mathcal P}_{\text{mod}}$$ is isomorphic to the Grothendieck ring of the tensor category of all $$\mathcal O$$-integrable representations of the twisted loop algebra associated with $$J$$ and $$\theta$$ at level $$p-g$$ and the truth of the conjecture linking quantum group representations and the representations of the twisted loop algebras is explained.
