We propose upper bounds for the number of modular constituents of the restriction modulo $p$ of a complex irreducible character of a finite group, and for its decomposition numbers, in certain cases.

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ a prime. We establish an upper bound for the derived length of a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ in terms of the number of irreducible characters of $G$ whose degrees are divisible by $p$. We also prove that if…

Let $q$ be a prime power and $U$ the group of lower unitriangular matrices of order $n$ for some natural number $n$. We give a lower bound for the degrees of irreducible constituents of Andr\'{e}-Yan supercharacters and classify the…

Formulas are developed for the eight basis matrices {T^+,T^-,T^3,V^+,V^-,U^+,U^-,U^3} of the finite dimensional (p,q)-irreducible representation of SU(3). Two computer programs, one in an interpretive language and one in a compiled…

We are interested in determining the bound of the average of the degrees of the irreducible characters whose degrees are not divisible by some prime $p$ that guarantees a finite group $G$ of odd order is $p$-nilpotent. We find a bound that…

Let $G$ be a finite symmetric, general linear, or general unitary group defined over a field of characteristic coprime to $3$. We construct a canonical correspondence between irreducible characters of degree coprime to $3$ of $G$ and those…

We restrict irreducible characters of alternating groups of degree divisible by $p$ to their Sylow $p$-subgroups and study the number of linear constituents.

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $\chi,\psi$ be irreducible characters of $G$. We study the character $\chi\psi$ when $\chi\psi$ has at most $p-1$ distinct irreducible constituents.

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.

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.

In this note, we determine the irreducible characters for the simple algebraic groups of type $A_5$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic 3, by using a theorem of Xi Nanhua and the Matlab software. In order to obtain…

Let $G$ be a finite nilpotent group, $\chi$ and $\psi$ be irreducible complex characters of $G$ of prime degree. Assume that $\chi(1)=p$. Then either the product $\chi\psi$ is a multiple of an irreducible character or $\chi\psi$ is the…

We obtain nontrivial bounds for character sums with multiplicative and additive characters over finite fields over elements with restricted coordinate expansion. In particular, we obtain a nontrivial estimate for such a sum over a finite…

We present a strong upper bound on the number k(B) of irreducible characters of a p-block B of a finite group G in terms of local invariants. More precisely, the bound depends on a chosen major B-subsection (u,b), its normalizer N_G(\langle…

Let $p$ be a prime. For $p=2$, the fields of values of the complex irreducible characters of finite groups whose degrees are not divisible by $p$ have been classified; for odd primes $p$, a conjectural classification has been proposed. In…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-solvable group, where $p$ is an odd prime. We establish a connection between extendible irreducible characters of subgroups of $G$ that lie under monomial characters of $G$ and nilpotent subgroups of $G$. We also…

We prove that if $p$ is an odd prime, $G$ is a solvable group, and the average value of the irreducible characters of $G$ whose degrees are not divisible by $p$ is strictly less than $2(p+1)/(p+3)$, then $G$ is $p$-nilpotent. We show that…

For all prime powers q we restrict the unipotent characters of the special orthogonal groups SO_5(q) and SO_7(q) to a maximal parabolic subgroup. We determine all irreducible constituents of these restrictions for SO_5(q) and a large part…

In this paper we study finite p-solvable groups having irreducible complex characters chi in Irr(G) which take roots of unity values on the p-singular elements of G.

We consider sequences of degrees of ordinary irreducible $S_n$-characters. We assume that the corresponding Young diagrams have rows and columns bounded by some linear function of $n$ with leading coefficient less than one. We show that any…
