We develop the concept of character level for the complex irreducible characters of finite, general or special, linear and unitary groups. We give characterizations of the level of a character in terms of its Lusztig's label and in terms of…

In this work, we establish a relationship between the sum of irreducible character degrees and the number of twisted involutions associated with the automorphisms of a finite group. We develop algorithmic frameworks for evaluating these…

Let $p$ be a prime and $G$ a finite group. A complex character of $G$ is called almost $p$-rational if its values belong to a cyclotomic field $\mathbb{Q}(e^{2\pi i/n})$ for some $n\in \mathbb{Z}^+$ prime to $p$ or precisely divisible by…

We define the superclasses for a classical finite unipotent group $U$ of type $B_{n}(q)$, $C_{n}(q)$, or $D_{n}(q)$, and show that, together with the supercharacters defined in a previous paper, they form a supercharacter theory. In…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let cs$(G)$ be the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$. Recalling that an element $g$ of $G$ is called a \emph{vanishing element} if there exists an irreducible character of $G$ taking the value $0$ on $g$, we…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $G$ be a $p$-solvable finite group and $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. We prove that $G$ is $p$-supersolvable if $N_G(P)$ is $p$-supersolvable and if there is a subgroup $H$ of $P$ with $P' \le H \le \Phi(P)$…

We prove, for certain pairs G,G of finite groups of Lie type, that the p-fusion systems for G and G' are equivalent. In other words, there is an isomorphism between a Sylow p-subgroup of G and one of G' which preserves p-fusion. This…

We consider the structure of a finite groups having a normal series whose factors have bicyclic Sylow subgroups. In particular, we investigated groups of odd order and $A_4$-free groups with this property. Exact estimations of the derived…

Denote by $\nu_p(G)$ the number of Sylow $p$-subgroups of $G$. It is not difficult to see that $\nu_p(H)\leq\nu_p(G)$ for $H\leq G$, however $\nu_p(H)$ does not divide $\nu_p(G)$ in general. In this paper we reduce the question whether…

Let $G$ be a finite solvable group. We show that $G$ does not have a normal nonabelian Sylow $p$-subgroup when its prime character degree graph $\Delta(G)$ satisfies a technical hypothesis.

These notes are defining the notion of centric linking system for a locally finite group If a locally finite group $G$ has countable Sylow $p$-subgroups, we prove that, with a countable condition on the set of intersections, the…

We develop general formulae for the numbers of conjugacy classes and irreducible complex characters of finite p-groups of nilpotency class less than p. This allows us to unify and generalize a number of existing enumerative results, and to…

A supercharacter theory for a finite group $G$ is a set of superclasses each of which is a union of conjugacy classes together with a set of sums of irreducible characters called supercharacters that together satisfy certain compatibility…

Given an almost simple group $A$, we algorithmically show that the character table of $A$ determines whether or not the Sylow 3-subgroups of $A$ are 2-generated. We show this property is equivalent to a condition involving the Galois action…

The classical It\^{o}-Michler theorem states that the degree of every ordinary irreducible character of a finite group $G$ is coprime to a prime $p$ if and only if the Sylow $p$-subgroups of $G$ are abelian and normal. In an earlier paper,…

Given a Mersenne prime $q$ and a positive even integer $e$, let $F$ and $E$ be the fields of orders $q$ and $q^e$ respectively. Let $C$ be a cyclic subgroup of $E^\times$ whose index in $E^\times$ is divisible only by primes dividing $q -…

We study the restriction to Sylow subgroups of irreducible characters of symmetric groups. In particular, we focus our attention on constituents of degree greater than 1. Our main result is a wide generalization of Theorem 3.1 of Giannelli…

By generalizing Frobenius' polynomial method to good partition algebra, we will develop new character theories for a finite group $G$. A uniform defining equations are derived for these kinds of character theories. The new character…

We provide an example of a finite group with a conjugacy class of average size on which fewer than half of the irreducible characters are either zero or a root of unity.

We prove a variation of Thompson's Theorem. Namely, if the first column of the character table of a finite group $G$ contains only two distinct values not divisible by a given prime number $p>3$, then $O^{pp'pp'}(G)=1$. This is done by…
