Groups with exactly two supercharacter theories

Group Theory 2015-10-14 v2

Abstract

In this paper, we classify those finite groups with exactly two supercharacter theories. We show that the solvable groups with two supercharacter theories are Z3\mathbb{Z}_3 and S3S_3. We also show that the only nonsolvable group with two supercharacter theories is Sp(6,2){\rm Sp} (6,2).
