Abstract

The aim of this paper is to confirm an inequality predicted by Isaacs and Navarro in 1995, which asserts that for any π\pi'-subgroup QQ of a π\pi-separable group GG, the number of π\pi'-weights of GG with QQ as the first component always exceeds that of irreducible π\pi-partial characters of GG with QQ as their vertex. We also give some sufficient condition to guarantee that these two numbers are equal, and thereby strengthen their main theorem on the π\pi-version of the Alperin weight conjecture.
