We determine invariants like the Smith normal form and the determinant for certain integral matrices which arise from the character tables of the symmetric groups S_n and their double covers. In particular, we give a simple computation,…

Inspired by the definition of generalized wreath product of permutation groups, we define the generalized wreath product of graphs, containing the classical Cartesian and wreath product of graphs as particular cases. We prove that the…

For an irreducible complex character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, the codegree of $\chi$ is defined by $|G:\ker(\chi)|/\chi(1)$, where $\ker(\chi)$ is the kernel of $\chi$. Given a prime $p$, we provide a classification of finite groups in…

Let $G$ be a finite group. The ring $R_\mathbb{K}(G)$ of virtual characters of $G$ over the field $\mathbb{K}$ is a $\lambda$-ring; as such, it is equipped with the so-called $\Gamma$-filtration, first defined by Grothendieck. We explore…

The symmetric group $S_{2n}$ and the hyperoctaheadral group $H_{n}$ is a Gelfand triple for an arbitrary linear representation $\phi$ of $H_{n}$. Their $\phi$-spherical functions can be caught as transition matrix between suitable symmetric…

The prime graph of a finite group $G$ is denoted by $\ga(G)$. Also $G$ is called recognizable by prime graph if and only if each finite group $H$ with $\ga(H)=\ga(G)$, is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, we classify all finite groups with…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $\rm{Irr}(G)$ be the set of all irreducible complex characters of $G$. Let $\rm{cd}(G)$ be the set of all character degrees of $G$ and denote by $\rho(G)$ the set of primes which divide some character…

Answering a question of J. Rosenberg, we construct the first examples of infinite characters on $GL_n(\mathbf{K})$ for a global field $\mathbf{K}$ and $n\geq 2.$ The case $n=2$ is deduced from the following more general result. Let $G$ a…

Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms. For any fixed prime divisor $p$ of $|G|$, we provide a complete characterization of the structure of a group $G$ in which every maximal $A$-invariant…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group. Consider the wreath product $G_n := \Gamma^n \rtimes S_n$ and the subgroup $K_n := \Delta_n \times S_n\subseteq G_n$, where $S_n$ is the symmetric group and $\Delta_n$ is the diagonal subgroup of $\Gamma^n$.…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $p$ a prime number and $P$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. Recently, G. Malle, G. Navarro, and P. H. Tiep conjectured that the number of $p$-Brauer characters of $G$ coincides with that of the normaliser ${\bf…

The degree of commutativity of a finite group is the probability that two uniformly and randomly chosen elements commute. This notion extends naturally to finitely generated groups $G$: the degree of commutativity $\text{dc}_S(G)$, with…

Let $(G_n,X_n)$ be a sequence of finite transitive permutation groups with uniformly bounded number of generators. We prove that the infinitely iterated permutational wreath product $...\wr G_2\wr G_1$ is topologically finitely generated if…

The codegree of an irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as $|G:\ker\chi|/\chi(1)$. The codegree graph $\Gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the prime divisors of $|G|$, where two distinct…

In 1973, I. M. Isaacs described a correspondence between characters of degree not divisible by a fixed prime $p$ of a finite solvable group $G$ and those of the normalizer of Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$, whenever the index of the normalizer…

Let $S_n$ denote a symmetric group, $\chi$ an irreducible character of $S_n$, and $g\in S_n$ an element which decomposes into $k$ disjoint cycles, where $1$-cycles are included. Then $|\chi(g)|\le k!$, and this upper bound is sharp for…
