چکیده
In previous work (Dawsey et al. in J Algebra 533:339–343, 2019), the authors confirmed speculation of J.G. Thompson that certain multiquadratic fields are generated by specified character values sufficiently large alternating groups $$A_n$$ . Here we address natural generalization this to finite general linear $$\mathrm {GL}_m\left( {{\mathbb {F}}}_q\right) $$ and {SL}_2\left(

Characters of unipotent groups over finite fields
Let G be a connected unipotent group over a finite field Fq. In this article we propose a definition of L-packets of complex irreducible representations of the finite group G(Fq) and give an explicit description of L-packets in terms of the so-called “admissible pairs” for G. We then apply our results to show that if the centralizer of every geometric point of G is connected, then the dimension...
متن کاملCharacters of Reductive Groups over Finite Fields
Let E be a connected reductive algebraic group over C and let W be its Weyl group. The Springer correspondence allows us to parametrize the irreducible representations E of W as F = F^^ where u is a unipotent element in G (up to conjugacy) and <p is an irreducible representation of the group of components AH(u) = ZH(u)IZ°H(u). (However, not all <p arise in the parametrization.) For F = F^Uttp) ...
متن کاملCharacter Sheaves and Characters of Unipotent Groups over Finite Fields
Let G0 be a connected unipotent group over a finite field Fq, and let G = G0 ⊗Fq Fq, equipped with the Frobenius endomorphism Frq : G −→ G. For every character sheaf M on G such that Frq M ∼= M , we prove that M comes from an irreducible perverse sheaf M0 on G0 such that M0 is pure of weight 0 (as an `-adic complex) and for each integer n ≥ 1 the “trace of Frobenius” function tM0⊗FqFqn on G0(Fq...
متن کاملNilpotent Primitive Linear Groups over Finite Fields
In this paper we investigate the structure of groups as in the title. Our work builds on work of several other authors, namely Konyuh [5], Leedham-Green and Plesken [6], and Zalesskii [10], who have described the abstract isomorphism types of the groups. We obtain more detailed descriptions, in particular explaining how group structure depends on the existence of an abelian primitive subgroup. ...
متن کاملCharacters of Finite Abelian Groups
Example 1.2. The trivial character of G is the homomorphism 1G defined by 1G(g) = 1 for all g ∈ G. Example 1.3. Let G be cyclic of order 4 with generator γ. Since γ4 = 1, a character χ of G has χ(γ)4 = 1, so χ takes only four possible values at γ, namely 1, −1, i, or −i. Once χ(γ) is known, the value of χ elsewhere is determined by multiplicativity: χ(γj) = χ(γ)j . So we get four characters, wh...
