Let $p$ be an odd prime, and suppose that $G$ is a $p$-solvable group and $\varphi\in {\rm IBr}(G)$ has vertex $Q$. In 2011, Cossey, Lewis and Navarro proved that the number of lifts of $\varphi$ is at most $|Q:Q'|$ whenever $Q$ is normal…

Let $G$ be a finite solvable or symmetric group and let $B$ be a $2$-block of $G$. We construct a canonical correspondence between the irreducible characters of height zero in $B$ and those in its Brauer first main correspondent. For…

We prove that every free metabelian non--cyclic group has a finitely generated isolated subgroup which is not separable in the class of nilpotent groups. As a corollary we prove that for every prime number $p$ an arbitrary free metabelian…

We give a sufficient condition for the $kG$-Scott module with vertex $P$ to remain indecomposable under taking the Brauer construction for any subgroup $Q$ of $P$ as $k[Q\,C_G(Q)]$-module, where $k$ is a field of characteristic $2$, and $P$…

Let $p$ be a prime divisor of the order of a finite group $G$. Then $G$ has at least $2 \sqrt{p-1}$ complex irreducible characters of degrees prime to $p$. In case $p$ is a prime with $\sqrt{p-1}$ an integer this bound is sharp for…

We determine the structure of the finite non-solvable groups of order divisible by $3$ all whose maximal subgroups of order divisible by $3$ are supersolvable. Precisely, we demonstrate that if $G$ is a finite non-solvable group satisfying…

For finite groups $G$ with non-abelian, trivial intersection Sylow $p$-subgroups, the analysis of the Loewy structure of the centre of a block allows us to deduce that a stable equivalence of Morita type does not induce an algebra…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$, the algebraic closure of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of $p$ elements. Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$ and ${\bf B}$ be a Borel subgroup…

Let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by a prime $p$. The number of $p$-regular and $p'$-regular conjugacy classes of $G$ is at least $2\sqrt{p-1}$. Also, the number of $p$-rational and $p'$-rational irreducible characters of $G$ is…

For a torsion unit $u$ of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ of a finite group $G$, and a prime $p$ which does not divide the order of $u$ (but the order of $G$), a relation between the partial augmentations of $u$ on the $p$-regular…

Let $\F_q$ be a field of characteristic $p$ with $q$ elements. It is known that the degrees of the irreducible characters of the Sylow $p$-subgroup of $GL_n(\F_q)$ are powers of $q$ by Issacs. On the other hand Sangroniz showed that this is…

Let $B$ be a $p$-block of a finite group $G$ with defect group $D$. The more difficult direction of the recently proven height zero conjecture says that $D$ is abelian if every character in Irr$(B)$ has height zero. We consider a smaller…

Denote by $\nu_p(G)$ the number of Sylow $p$-subgroups of $G$. It is not difficult to see that $\nu_p(H)\leq\nu_p(G)$ for $H\leq G$, however $\nu_p(H)$ does not divide $\nu_p(G)$ in general. In this paper we reduce the question whether…

We give a new proof of the theorem stating that for any connected linear algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0 and for any closed connected subgroup H of G, the unramified Brauer group of G/H vanishes.

Navarro defined the set ${Irr}(G \mid Q, \delta) \subseteq {Irr}(G)$, where $Q$ is a $p$-subgroup of a $p$-solvable group $G$, and shows that if $\delta$ is the trivial character of $Q$, then ${Irr}(G \mid Q, \delta)$ provides a set of…

In this note we give applications of recent results coming mostly from the third paper of this series. It is shown that the number of irreducible characters in a $p$-block of a finite group with abelian defect group $D$ is bounded by $|D|$…

In this note, we formulate an observation that "almost all" irreducible ordinary characters of finite groups of Lie type remain irreducible when restricted to the derived subgroups. To see this, key ingredients are some asymptotic results…

Let g be the Lie superalgebra p(3) of rank 2 over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p > 3. We classify all irreducible modules of g, and give the character formulae for irreducible modules.

Let $G$ be a finite group. For a prime $p$ and an integer $e \geq 0$, we denote by $\Gamma_{p,e}(G)$ the set of all pairs $(H, \varphi)$, where $H$ is a $p$-subgroup of $G$ of order greater than $p^e$ and $\varphi$ is a complex irreducible…

Let $A$ be the ring of integers of a number field $K$. Let $G \subseteq GL_3(A)$ be a finite group. Let $G$ act linearly on $R = A[X,Y, Z]$ (fixing $A$) and let $S = R^G$ be the ring of invariants. Assume the Veronese subring $S^{<m>}$ of…
