Minimal Degree of Faithful Quasi-permutation Representations of p-Groups

In [2], we gave algorithms to calculate c(G), q(G) and p(G) for a finite group G. In this paper, we show that for a finite p-group G, where p is a prime, q(G) = p(G). Moreover, for odd prime p, c(G) = q(G) = p(G). 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: primary 20D15; secondary 20B05, 20C15

QUASI-PERMUTATION REPRESENTATIONS OF METACYCLIC 2-GROUPS

By a quasi-permutation matrix we mean a square matrix over the complex field C with non-negative integral trace. Thus, every permutation matrix over C is a quasipermutation matrix. For a given finite group G, let p(G) denote the minimal degree of a faithful permutation representation of G (or of a faithful representation of G by permutation matrices), let q(G) denote the minimal degree of a fa...

Minimal Permutation Representations of Nilpotent Groups

A minimal permutation representation of a finite group G is a faithful G-set with the smallest possible size. We study the structure of such representations and show that for certain groups they may be obtained by a greedy construction. In these situations (except when central involutions intervene) all minimal permutation representations have the same set of orbit sizes. Using the same ideas w...

On Minimal Faithful Permutation Representations of Finite Groups

The minimal faithful permutation degree n(G) of a finite group G is the least positive integer n such that G is isomorphic to a subgroup of the symmetric group Sn. Let AT be a normal subgroup of a finite group G. We prove that n(G/N) $C /i(G) if G/N has no nontrivial Abelian normal subgroup. There is an as yet unproved conjecture that the same conclusion holds if G/N is Abelian. We investigate ...

Groups with Two Extreme Character Degrees and their Minimal Faithful Representations

for a finite group G, we denote by p(G) the minimal degree of faithful permutation representations of G, and denote by c(G), the minimal degree of faithful representation of G by quasi-permutation matrices over the complex field C. In this paper we will assume that, G is a p-group of exponent p and class 2, where p is prime and cd(G) = {1, |G : Z(G)|^1/2}. Then we will s...

Minimal Faithful Permutation Degrees for Irreducible Coxeter Groups

The minimal faithful degree of a finite group G, denoted by μ(G), is the least non-negative integer n such that G embeds inside Sym(n). In this article we calculate the minimal faithful permutation degree for all of the irreducible Coxeter groups.
