Abstract: We prove that there exists an integer-valued function f on positive integers such that if a finite group G has at most k real-valued irreducible characters, then |G/Sol(G)| is at most f(k), where Sol(G) denotes the largest solvable normal subgroup of G. In the case k = 5, we further classify G/Sol(G). This partly answers a question of Iwasaki [15] on the relationship between the structure of a finite group and its number of real-valued irreducible characters.
Let \(G\) be a finite group with at most \(k\) real-valued irreducible characters. In this paper, the authors show that there exists an integer-valued function of the variable \(k\) such that \(|G/\text{Sol}(G)|\leq f(k)\), where \(\text{Sol}(G)\) denotes the soluble radical of \(G\). In the case \(k=5\), they prove that \(G/\text{Sol}(G)\) is isomorphic to the trivial group, \(\text{SL}_3(2)\), \(\text{Alt}(5)\), \(\text{PSL}_2(8)\cdot 3\), or \(^2\text{B}_2(8)\cdot 3\).
