On the Characterization of Alternating Groups by Codegrees

Abstract: Let

G

be a finite group and

m a t h r m I r r (G)

the set of all irreducible complex characters of

G

. Define the codegree of

c h i i n m a t h r m I r r (G)

as

m a t h r m c o d (c h i) := f r a c | G : m a t h r m k e r (c h i) | c h i (1)

and denote by

m a t h r m c o d (G) := m a t h r m c o d (c h i) m i d c h i i n m a t h r m I r r (G)

the codegree set of

G

. Let

m a t h r m A_{n}

be an alternating group of degree

n g e 5

. In this paper, we show that

m a t h r m A_{n}

is determined up to isomorphism by

m a t h r m c o d (m a t h r m A_{n})

.
