Let F be a finite field with q elements, let A be a finite dimensional F-algebra and let J=J(A) be the Jacobson radical of A. Then G=1+J is a p-group, where p is the characteristic of F. We refer to G as an F-algebra group. A subgroup H of…

For a group $G$ and a character $\chi$ of $G$, let $c(\chi)$ denote the set of all irreducible characters of $G$, occurring in $\chi$. We prove that whenever $q\geq 8$, all non-trivial irreducible character $\chi$ of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(q)$…

Let $U_n(q)$ denote the upper triangular group of degree $n$ over the finite field $\F_q$ with $q$ elements. It is known that irreducible constituents of supercharacters partition the set of all irreducible characters $\Irr(U_n(q)).$ In…

Let $U(q)$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of the Chevalley groups $D_4(q)$ where $q$ is a power of a prime $p$. We describe a construction of all complex irreducible characters of $U(q)$ and obtain a classification of these irreducible characters…

We determine the indecomposable characters of several classes of infinite dimensional groups associated with operator algebras, including the unitary groups of arbitrary unital simple AF algebras and II$_1$ factors.

In this paper we obtain the orthogonality relations for the supergroup U(m|n), which are remarkably different from the ones for the U(N) case. We extend our results for ordinary representations, obtained some time ago, to the case of…

It is known that characters of irreducible representations of finite Lie algebras can be obtained using theWeyl character formula including Weyl group summations which make actual calculations almost impossible except for a few Lie algebras…

A character of a group is said to be super-monomial if every primitive character inducing it is linear. It is conjectured by Isaacs that every irreducible character of an odd $M$-group is super-monomial. We show that all non linear…

We establish an explicit formula for the character of an irreducible finite-dimensional representation of $\mathfrak{gl}(m|n)$. The formula is a finite sum with integer coefficients in terms of a basis $\mathcal{E}_{\mu}$ (Euler characters)…

This paper computes the irreducible characters of the alternating Hecke algebras, which are deformations of the group algebras of the alternating groups. More precisely, we compute the values of the irreducible characters of the semisimple…

Let G be a possibly disconnected reductive real Lie group. In this paper, I parametrize the set of irreductible tempered characters of G. I then describe these characters using certain ``Kirillov's formulas,'' based on the descent method…

In 2015, the author proved combinatorially character formulas expressing sums of the (formal) dimensions of irreducible representations of symplectic groups, refining some works of Nekrasov and Okounkov, Han, King, and Westbury. In this…

Much can be learned about a finite group from its character table, but sometimes that table can be difficult to compute. Supercharacter theories are generalizations of character theory defined by P. Diaconis and I.M. Isaacs, in which…

Let G be a finite p-group, for some prime p, and $\psi, \theta \in \Irr(G)$ be irreducible complex characters of G. It has been proved that if, in addition, $\psi,\theta$ are faithful characters, then the product $\psi\theta$ is a multiple…

We present an explicit formula for subregular characters (i.e, irreducible finite-dimensional complex characters of submaximal degree) of the unitriangular group over a finite field of sufficiently large characteristic.

We prove certain polynomial relations between the values of complex irreducible characters of general finite symmetric groups. We use it to find some sets of conjugacy classes such that no finite symmetric group has a complex irreducible…

In an earlier paper [1] it was shown that the Frobenius compound characters for the symmetric groups are related to the irreducible characters by a linear relation that involves a unitriagular coupling matrix that gives the Frobenius…

Expanding products of invariant functions of a group element as a series in the basis of characters of the irreducible representations of a group is widely used in many areas of physics and related fields. In this contribution a formula to…

Isaacs has defined a character to be super monomial if every primitive character inducing it is linear. Isaacs has conjectured that if $G$ is an $M$-group with odd order, then every irreducible character is super monomial. We prove that the…

In this paper, we consider the construction of irreducible representations of finite pattern groups in terms of Panov's associative polarization, which is a finite-field analogue of Kirillov's orbital method. Using this construction, first,…
