Higher Congruences in Character Tables

Abstract

Motivated by recent work of Peluse and Soundararajan on divisibility properties of the entries of the character tables of symmetric groups, we investigate the question: For a finite group G, when are two columns of the character table of G congruent to one another modulo a power of a prime?
