Homogeneous products of characters.

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: I. M. Isaacs has conjectured (see cite{isa00}) that if the product of two faithful irreducible characters of a solvable group is irreducible, then the group is cyclic. In this paper we prove a special case of the following conjecture, which generalizes Isaacs conjecture. Suppose that G is solvable and that psi,phiinIrr(G) are faithful. If psiphi=mchi where m is a positive integer and chiinIrr(G) then psi and phi vanish on GZ(G). In particular we prove that the above conjecture holds for p-groups.
