Fischer Group

The Fischer group [Formula: see text] is the largest 3-transposition sporadic group of order 2510411418381323442585600 = 222.316.52.73.11.13.17.23.29. It is generated by a conjugacy class of 306936 transpositions. Wilson [15] completely determined all the maximal 3-local subgroups of Fi24. In the present paper, we determine the Fischer-Clifford matrices and hence compute the character table of the non-split extension 37· (O7(3):2), which is a maximal 3-local subgroup of the automorphism group Fi24 of index 125168046080 using the technique of Fischer-Clifford matrices. Most of the calculations are carried out using the computer algebra systems GAP and MAGMA.

The conjugacy classes of any group are important since they reflect some aspects of the structure of the group. The construction of the conjugacy classes of finite groups has been a subject of research for several authors. Let n,m be positive integers and [Formula: see text] be the direct product of m copies of the symmetric group Sn of degree n. Then [Formula: see text] is a subgroup of the symmetric group Smn of degree m × n. Let g∈Smn, of type [mn] where each m-cycle contains one symbol from each set of symbols in that order on which the copies of Sn act. Then g permutes the elements of the copies of Sn in [Formula: see text] and generates a cyclic group Cm = 〈g〉 of order m. The wreath product of Sn with Cm is a split extension or semi-direct product of [Formula: see text] by Cm, denoted by [Formula: see text]. It is clear that [Formula: see text] is a subgroup of the symmetric group Smn. In this paper we give a method similar to coset analysis for constructing the conjugacy classes of [Formula: see text], where m is prime. Apart from the fact that this is an alternative method for constructing the conjugacy classes of the group [Formula: see text], this method is useful in the construction of Fischer–Clifford matrices of the group [Formula: see text]. These Fischer–Clifford matrices are useful in the construction of the character table of [Formula: see text].

Held Group

The Held group He discovered by Held [10] is a sporadic simple group of order 4030387200 = 210.33.52.73.17. The group He has 11 conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups as determined by Butler [5] and listed in the 𝔸𝕋𝕃𝔸𝕊. Held himself determined much of the local structure of He as well as the conjugacy classes of its elements. Thompson calculated the character table of He . In the present paper, we determine the Fischer–Clifford matrices and hence compute the character table of the non-split extension 3·S7, which is a maximal subgroups of He of index 226560 using the technique of Fischer–Clifford matrices. Most of the computations were carried out with the aid of the computer algebra system 𝔾𝔸ℙ.

The automorphism group U6(2):2 of the unitary group U6(2)≅Fi21 has a maximal subgroup G¯ of the form (29:(L3(4)):2 of order 20643840. In this paper, Fischer-Clifford theory is applied to the split extension group G¯ to construct its character table. Also, class fusion from G¯ into the parent group U6(2):2 is determined.

Number Of Zeros

The finite groups in which every irreducible character vanishes on at most three conjugacy classes were characterized [J. Group Theory13 (2010) 799–819]. Dually, we investigate the finite groups whose columns contain a small number of zeros in the character table.

Irreducible Character Degree

Much information about a finite group is encoded in its character table. Indeed even a small portion of the character table may reveal significant information about the group. By a famous theorem of Jordan, knowing the degree of one faithful irreducible character of a finite group gives an upper bound for the index of its largest normal abelian subgroup.Here we consider b(G), the largest irreducible character degree of the group G. A simple application of Frobenius reciprocity shows that b(G) ≧ |G:A| for any abelian subgroup A of G. In light of this fact and Jordan's theorem, one might seek to bound the index of the largest abelian subgroup of G from above by a function of b(G). If is G is nilpotent, a result of Isaacs and Passman (see [7, Theorem 12.26]) shows that G has an abelian subgroup of index at most b(G)4.
