We determine the finite groups whose real irreducible representations have different degrees.

There has been some interest on how the average character degree affects the structure of a finite group. We define, and denote by $ \mathrm{anz}(G) $, the average number of zeros of characters of a finite group $ G $ as the number of zeros…

The covering number of a non-linear character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$ is the least positive integer $k$ such that every irreducible character of $G$ occurs in $\chi^k$. We determine the covering numbers of irreducible characters of the…

We classify, up to conjugacy, the finite subgroups of PGL(2,K) of order prime to char(K).

In this note we study a class of finite groups for which the orders of subgroups satisfy a certain inequality. In particular, characterizations of the well-known groups $\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2$ and $S_3$ are obtained.

For a finite group $G$, we denote by $c(G)$, the minimal degree of faithful representation of $G$ by quasi-permutation matrices over the complex field $\mathbb{C}$. For an irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$, the codegree of $\chi$ is…

For a finite group $G$ and complex character $\chi\in\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ that restricts irreducibly to a normal subgroup $N\vartriangleleft G,$ we prove a theorem about Clifford correspondences between the characters of subgroups of $G$ that…

Let $G$ be a finite group. We study the generalized character defined by $\Xi(g)=|G|o(g)$, for $g\in G$, which is closely related to a function that has been very studied recently from a group theoretical point of view.

In this paper we classify all finite 2-groups of class 2 for which every automorphism of order 2 leaving the Frattini subgroup elementwise fixed is inner. We prove that every such group G is isomorphic to Q(n; r) = <a, b| a^{2n}= b^{2r}= 1;…

Given a finite group $G$, we denote by $L(G)$ the subgroup lattice of $G$ and by ${\rm Isolated}(G)$ the set of isolated subgroups of $G$. In this note, we describe finite groups $G$ such that $|{\rm Isolated}(G)|=|L(G)|-k$, where…

We consider the structure of finite $p$-groups $G$ having precisely three characteristic subgroups, namely $1$, $\Phi(G)$ and $G$. The structure of $G$ varies markedly depending on whether $G$ has exponent $p$ or $p^2$, and, in both cases,…

Let $S$ be a Suzuki group $^2B_2(q^2)$, where $q^2=2^{2f+1}$, $f\geqslant 1$. In this paper, we determine the degrees of the ordinary complex irreducible characters of every group $G$ such that $S\leqslant G\leqslant \Aut(S)$.

A supercharacter theory for a finite group $G$ is a set of superclasses each of which is a union of conjugacy classes together with a set of sums of irreducible characters called supercharacters that together satisfy certain compatibility…

For an irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, let $\mathrm{cod}(\chi):=|G: \ker(\chi)|/\chi(1)$ denote the codegree of $\chi$, and let $\mathrm{cod}(G)$ be the set of irreducible character codegrees of $G$. In this note, we…

For a finite group $G$, let $\Delta(G)$ denote the character graph built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. In this paper, we determine the structure of all finite groups $G$ with $K_4$-free character graph…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $\pi$ be a set of primes. Write $\mathrm{Irr}_{\pi'}(G)$ for the set of irreducible characters of degree not divisible by any prime in $\pi$. We show that if $\pi$ contains at most two prime numbers and the…

In this work, we classify the group gradings on finite-dimensional incidence algebras over a field, where the field has characteristic zero, or the characteristic is greater than the dimension of the algebra, or the grading group is…

This paper is a continuation of [GLT], which develops a level theory and establishes strong character bounds for finite simple groups of linear and unitary type in the case that the centralizer of the element has small order compared to…

We define a class of finite groups based on the properties of the closed twins of their power graphs and study the structure of those groups. As a byproduct, we obtain results about finite groups admitting a partition by cyclic subgroups.

Suppose $C(G)$ denotes the set of all cyclic subgroups of a finite group $G$, and $\mathcal{O}_{2}(G)$ denotes the number of elements of order $2$ in $G$. In [Marius T., Finite groups with a certain number of cyclic subgroups. The American…
