Quasirandom and quasisimple groups

Fix $\varepsilon > 0$. We say that a finite group $G$ is $\varepsilon$-quasirandom if every nontrivial irreducible complex representation of $G$ has degree at least $|G|^\varepsilon$. In this paper, we give a structure theorem for large $\varepsilon$-quasirandom groups, and we completely classify the $\frac{1}{5}$-quasirandom groups.
