Using a Galois connection to compute character degrees

Group Theory 2014-04-01 v1

Abstract

Given a Mersenne prime qq and a positive even integer ee, let FF and EE be the fields of orders qq and qeq^e respectively. Let CC be a cyclic subgroup of E×E^\times whose index in E×E^\times is divisible only by primes dividing q1q - 1. We compute the character degrees of the group CGal(E/F)C \rtimes {\rm Gal} (E/F) by using the Galois connection between the subfields of EE and the Galois group Gal(E/F){\rm Gal} (E/F).
