This paper is part of an extensive study of the author on character correspondences related to the McKay Conjecture. Let \(G\) be a finite group, \(p\) a prime, \(P\in\text{Syl}_p(G)\) and \(N=N_G(P)\). The well-known McKay Conjecture states that if \(\text{Irr}_{p'}(G)\) is the set of irreducible (complex) characters of \(p'\)-degree of \(G\), then \(|\text{Irr}_{p'}(G)|=|\text{Irr}_{p'}(N)|\). Recent generalizations of the McKay Conjecture by Isaacs-Navarro, Navarro and the author suggest that there even is a bijection between \(\text{Irr}_{p'}(G)\) and \(\text{Irr}_{p'}(N)\) preserving many properties of the characters. In [J. Algebra 295, No. 1, 157-178 (2006; Zbl 1107.20008)] the author constructed the strongest of these conjectured bijections in case that \(G\) is solvable. In the paper under review, he establishes an even stronger bijection under the assumption that \(G\) is solvable and \(|N|\) is odd, namely one that preserves \(\pm\) the degree modulo \(p\), the fields of values, and the Schur index over every field of characteristic zero. As one consequence of this it is proved that if \(G\) is solvable, then \(G\) has a nontrivial rational irreducible character of \(p'\)-degree if and only if \(|N|\) is even.
