Derived lengths and character degrees

AFFINE SUBGROUPS OF THE CLASSICAL GROUPS AND THEIR CHARACTER DEGREES

In this paper we describe how the degrees of the irreducible characters of the affine subgroups of the classical groups under consideration can be found inductively. In [4] Gow obtained certain character degrees for all of the affine subgroups of the classical groups. We apply the method of Fischer to the above groups and, in addition to the character degrees given in [4], we obtain some ne...

On Finite Groups With Two Irreducible Character Degrees

Symmetric Group Character Degrees and Hook Numbers

In this article we prove the following result: that for any two natural numbers k and `, and for all sufficiently large symmetric groups Sn, there are k disjoint sets of ` irreducible characters of Sn, such that each set consists of characters with the same degree, and distinct sets have different degrees. In particular, this resolves a conjecture most recently made by Moretó in [5]. The method...

computing character degrees via a galois connection

in a previous paper, the second author established that, given finite fields $f < e$ and certain subgroups $c leq e^times$, there is a galois connection between the intermediate field lattice ${l mid f leq l leq e}$ and $c$'s subgroup lattice. based on the galois connection, the paper then calculated the irreducible, complex character degrees of the semi-direct product $c rtimes {rm gal} (e/f)$...
