Sylow Group

We shall consider finite groups of order of g which satisfy the following condition:(*) There exists a prime p dividing g such that if P ≠ 1 is an element of p-Sylow group ofthen the centralizer(P) of P incoincides with the centralizer() of in.This assumption is satisfied for a number of important classes of groups. It also plays a role in discussing finite collineation groups in a given number of dimensions.Of course (*) implies that is abelian. It is possible to obtain rather detailed information about the irreducible characters of groups in this class (§ 4).

Nonlinear Irreducible Character

The main result of this paper is the following:Theorem A. Let H and N be finite groups with coprime orders andsuppose that H acts nontrivially on N via automorphisms. Assume that Hfixes every nonlinear irreducible character of N. Then the derived subgroup ofN is nilpotent and so N is solvable of nilpotent length≦ 2.Why might one be interested in a situation like this? There has been considerable interest in the question of what one can deduce about a group Gfrom a knowledge of the setcd(G) = ﹛x(l)lx ∈ Irr(G) ﹜of irreducible character degrees of G.Recently, attention has been focused on the prime divisors of the elements of cd(G). For instance, in [9], O. Manz and R. Staszewski consider π-separable groups (for some set π of primes) with the property that every element of cd(G) is either a 77-number or a π'-number.

In this note, the existence of orthogonal ∗-basis of the symmetry classes of polynomials is discussed. Analogously to the orthogonal ∗-basis of symmetry classes of tensor, some criteria for the existence of the basis for finite groups are provided. A condition for the existence of such basis of symmetry classes of polynomials associated to symmetric groups and some irreducible characters is also investigated.

A Finite Group

Let H be a normal subgroup of a finite group G, and let ζ be an (absolutely) irreducible character of H. In [7], Clifford studied the irreducible characters X of G whose restrictions to H contain ζ as a constituent. First he reduced this question to the same question in the so-called inertial subgroup S of ζ in G, and secondly he described the situation in S in terms of certain projective characters of S/H. In section 8 of [10], Mackey generalized these results to the situation where all the characters concerned are projective.
