On $G$-character tables for normal subgroups

Group Theory 2024-09-19 v1

Abstract

Let NN be a normal subgroup of a finite group GG. From a result due to Brauer, it can be derived that the character table of GG contains square submatrices which are induced by the GG-conjugacy classes of elements in NN and the GG-orbits of irreducible characters of NN. In the present paper, we provide an alternative approach to this fact through the structure of the group algebra. We also show that such matrices are non-singular and become a useful tool to obtain information of NN from the character table of GG.
