Prime characters and primitivity (Q1825269): Difference between revisions

A (complex) character of a finite group is called quasiprimitive if it is irreducible and if its restriction to every normal subgroup is a multiple of an irreducible character. It is known that every quasiprimitive character of a finite solvable group is primitive, i.e. not induced by a character of a proper subgroup. In the paper the authors give conditions which assure that a quasiprimitive character of a finite group is primitive.
