Abstract We prove that when q is a power of 2 every complex irreducible representation of $\textrm{Sp}\big (2n, \mathbb{F}_{q}\big )$ may be defined over the real numbers, that is, all Frobenius–Schur indicators are 1. We also obtain a generating function for the sum of the degrees of the unipotent characters of $\textrm{Sp}\big(2n, \mathbb{F}_{q}\big )$, or of $\textrm{SO}\big(2n+1,\mathbb{F}_{q}\big )$, for any prime power q.

Abstract We establish the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition for simple groups of Lie type $\mathsf C$ and the bad prime $2$ . As a main step, we derive a labelling set for the irreducible $2$ -Brauer characters of the finite symplectic groups $\operatorname {Sp}_{2n}(q)$ (with odd q), together with the action of automorphisms. As a further important ingredient, we prove a Jordan decomposition for weights.

Restrictions of modular irreducible representations of the symplectic algebraic group to naturally embedded long subgroups of type A1 are studied. Let ω = m1ω1 + ⋯ + mnωn be the highest weight of such representation. The composition factors of such restrictions are determined in the case of m1 + ⋯ + mn + 3 ≤ p < mn-1 + 2mn + 3 that completes the description of restrictions of classical algebraic groups to naturally embedded A1-subgroups and gives an example of a new inductive system of representations of symplectic groups that has no analogues in characteristic 0.
