On the Existence of a Unipotent Support for the Irreducible Characters of a Finite Group of Lie Type

On the Average Values of the Irreducible Characters of Finite Groups of Lie Type on Geometric Unipotent Classes

In 1980, Lusztig posed the problem of showing the existence of a unipotent support for the irreducible characters of a nite reductive group G(F q ). This is de ned in terms of certain average values of the irreducible characters on unipotent classes. The problem was solved by Lusztig [16] for the case where q is a power of a su ciently large prime. In this paper we show that, in general, these ...

Finding Characters Satisfying a Maximal Condition for Their Unipotent Support

In this article we extend independent results of Lusztig and Hézard concerning the existence of irreducible characters of finite reductive groups, (defined in good characteristic and arising from simple algebraic groups), satisfying a strong numerical relationship with their unipotent support. Along the way we obtain some results concerning quasi-isolated semisimple elements.

On the irreducible characters of Camina triples

The Camina triple condition is a generalization of the Camina condition in the theory of finite groups. The irreducible characters of Camina triples have been verified in the some special cases. In this paper, we consider a Camina triple (G,M,N)  and determine the irreducible characters of G in terms of the irreducible characters of M and G/N.

Monomial Irreducible sln-Modules

In this article, we introduce monomial irreducible representations of the special linear Lie algebra $sln$. We will show that this kind of representations have bases for which the action of the Chevalley generators of the Lie algebra on the basis elements can be given by a simple formula.
