Abstract: The aim of the present paper is to generalize the notion of the group determinants for finite groups. For a finite group $G$ of order $kn$ and its subgroup $H$ of order $n$, one may define an $n$ by $kn$ matrix $X=(x_{h{g}^{-1}}{)}_{hinH,ginG}$, where $x_g$ ($ginG$) are indeterminates indexed by the elements in $G$. Then, we define an invariant $Theta(G,H)$ for a given pair $(G,H)$ by the $k$-wreath determinant of the matrix $X$, where $k$ is the index of $H$ in $G$. The $k$-wreath determinant of $n$ by $kn$ matrix is a relative invariant of the left action by the general linear group of order $k$ and right action by the wreath product of two symmetric groups of order $k$ and $n$. Since the definition of $Theta(G,H)$ is ordering-sensitive, representation theory of symmetric groups are naturally involved. In this paper, we treat abelian groups with a special choice of indeterminates and give various examples of non-abelian group-subgroup pairs.
