For every finite quasisimple group of Lie type $G$, every irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$, and every element $g$ of $G$, we give an exponential upper bound for the character ratio $|\chi(g)|/\chi(1)$ with exponent linear in $\log_{|G|}…
In this paper we prove the blockwise Alperin weight conjecture for finite special linear and unitary groups, for finite groups with abelian Sylow $3$-subgroups, and verify the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition for certain cases…
This article is part of a project which aims to describe as explicitly as possible the Arthur packets of classical real groups and to prove a multiplicity one result for them. Let $G$ be a symplectic or special orthogonal real group, and…
Let $ \chi $ be a character of a complex irreducible representation of a finite group $G$. We present a simple formula for the expectation of the random variable $(|\chi|/\chi(1))^{t} $ in terms of character ratios $…
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 $S$ be an algebraic semigroup (not necessarily linear) defined over a field $F$. We show that there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $x^n$ belongs to a subgroup of $S(F)$ for any $x \in S(F)$. In particular, the semigroup $S(F)$…
We prove the Alperin-McKay Conjecture for all $p$-blocks of finite groups with metacyclic, minimal non-abelian defect groups. These are precisely the metacyclic groups whose derived subgroup have order $p$. In the special case $p=3$, we…
Let $N$ be normal subgroup of a finite group $G$, $p$ be a prime, $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $\theta$ be a $P$-invariant irreducible character of $N$. Suppose that $G/N$ is a $p$-solvable group. In this note we show that,…
The Alperin weight conjecture has been reduced to simple groups by Navarro and Tiep. In this paper, we investigate the Navarro Alperin weight conjecture, which includes Galois automorphisms and group automorphisms in comparison with the…
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…
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…
Absolutely indecomposable vector bundle and parabolic vector bundles are well-studied via quiver representations. In this paper, we study absolutely indecomposable quasi-parabolic $G$-bundles over $\mathbb{P}^1$ with generic additive…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ the set of all irreducible complex characters of $G$. Define the codegree of $\chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G)$ as $\mathrm{cod}(\chi):=\frac{|G:\mathrm{ker}(\chi) |}{\chi(1)}$ and denote by…
We consider groups where the centers of the irreducible characters form a chain. We obtain two alternate characterizations of these groups, and we obtain some information regarding the structure of these groups. Using our results, we are…
Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ denote the set of irreducible complex characters of $G$. An element $x$ of $G$ is said to be vanishing, if for some $\chi$ in $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$, we have $\chi(x)=0$. Also the element $x$…
Let $G$ be an arbitrary finite group. The McKay conjecture asserts that $G$ and the normaliser $N_G (P)$ of a Sylow $p$-subgroup $P$ in $G$ have the same number of characters of degree not divisible by $p$ (that is, of $p'$-degree). We…
Irreducible representations are the building blocks of general, semisimple Galois representations \rho, and cuspidal representations are the building blocks of automorphic forms \pi of the general linear group. It is expected that when an…
Let $G$ be a finite group and \( M \) be a maximal subgroup of \( G \). We call every irreducible constituent \( \chi \) of \( (1_M)^G \) a \( \mathcal{P} \)-character of \( G \) with respect to \( M \). In this paper, we prove that all…
In this paper, we compute the conjugacy classes and the list of irreducible characters of GSp(4,q), where q is odd. We also determine precisely which irreducible characters are non-cuspidal and which are generic. These characters are then…
Let $G$ be a finite solvable group and $\chi, \psi \in \Irr(G)$ be complex characters of $G$. Let $\alpha$ be an irreducible constituent of the product $\chi \psi$. We show that the derived length of $\Ker(\alpha)/\Ker(\chi\psi)$ is bounded…
