We prove that the order of a finite group $G$ with trivial solvable radical is bounded above in terms of ${\rm acd}(G)$, the average degree of the irreducible characters. It is not true that the index of the Fitting subgroup is bounded…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $n_p(G)$ the number of Sylow $p$-subgroups of $G$. In this paper, we prove if $n_p(G)<p^2$ then almost all numbers $n_p(G)$ are a power of a prime.
We describe the Sylow $p$-groups of the group of polynomial permutations of the integers mod $p^n$.
We define the position of an irreducible complex character of a finite group as an alternative to the degree. We then use this to define three classes of groups: PR-groups, IPR-groups and weak IPR-groups. We show that IPR-groups and weak…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ a fixed prime divisor of $|G|$. Combining the nilpotence, the normality and the order of groups together, we prove that if every maximal subgroup of $G$ is nilpotent or normal or has $p'$-order, then (1)…
This paper will prove that: 1. $G$ has a block only having linear ordinary characters if and only if $G$ is a $p$-nilpotent group with an abelian Sylow $p$-subgroup; 2. $G$ has a block only having linear Brauer characters if and only if…
A finite group G with center Z is of central type if there exists a fully ramified character $\lambda\in\mathrm{Irr}(Z)$, i.e. the induced character $\lambda^G$ is a multiple of an irreducible character. Howlett-Isaacs have shown that G is…
Let $G$ be a finite group. Denote by $\textrm{Irr}(G)$ the set of all irreducible complex characters of $G.$ Let $\textrm{cd}(G)=\{\chi(1)\;|\;\chi\in \textrm{Irr}(G)\}$ be the set of all irreducible complex character degrees of $G$…
For every prime $p$, we construct an infinite countable group that contains precisely $p-1$ elements which are not $p$th powers.
In this note we give applications of recent results coming mostly from the third paper of this series. It is shown that the number of irreducible characters in a $p$-block of a finite group with abelian defect group $D$ is bounded by $|D|$…
Let $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a finite $p$-solvable group $G$, where $p$ is a prime. Using a normal $p$-series $\mathcal{N}$ of $G$, we introduce the notion of $(\mathcal{N},p)$-stable characters and prove that $G$ and ${\bf N}_G(P)$…
Let $p$ and $q$ be different primes and let $G$ be a finite $q$-solvable group. We prove that $\mathrm{Irr}_{p'}(G)\subseteq \mathrm{Irr}_{q'}(G)$ if and only if $\mathbf{N}_G(P)\subseteq \mathbf{N}_G(Q)$ and $\mathbf{C}_{Q'}(P)=1$ for some…
Extending earlier results of the authors on minimal polynomials of $p$-elements of finite groups of Lie type in cross-characteristic representations, this paper focuses on the case where Sylow $p$-subgroups are cyclic and $p$ is distinct…
Let G be a finite p-group, for some prime p, and $\psi, \theta \in \Irr(G)$ be irreducible complex characters of G. It has been proved that if, in addition, $\psi,\theta$ are faithful characters, then the product $\psi\theta$ is a multiple…
We complete the l-modular decomposition numbers of the unipotent characters in the principal block of the special orthogonal groups SO_7(q) and the symplectic groups Sp_6(q) for all prime powers q and all odd primes l different from the…
We classify the finite groups with the property that any two different character codegrees are coprime. In general, we conjecture that if $k$ is a positive integer such that for any prime $p$ the number of character codegrees of a finite…
We study the zero-sharing behavior among irreducible characters of a finite group. For symmetric groups $S_n$, it is proved that, with one exception, any two irreducible characters have at least one common zero. To further explore this…
We construct a supercharacter theory, and establish the supercharacter table for Sylow $p$-subgroups $G_2^{syl}(q)$ of the Chevalley groups $G_2(q)$ of Lie type $G_2$ when $p>2$. Then we calculate the conjugacy classes, determine the…
Motivated by a recent result of Robinson showing that simple endotrivial modules essentially come from quasi-simple groups we classify such modules for finite special linear and unitary groups as well as for exceptional groups of Lie type.…
Let $\ell$ be a prime divisor of the order of a finite unitary reflection group. We classify up to conjugacy the parabolic and reflection subgroups that are minimal with respect to inclusion, subject to containing an $\ell$-Sylow subgroup.…
