Ordinary representations and characters (20C15) Representations of finite symmetric groups (20C30)

Abstract: Recently, a strong exponential character bound has been established in [3] for all elements $ginmathbf{G}^F$ of a finite reductive group $mathbf{G}^F$ which satisfy the condition that the centraliser $C_{mathbfG}(g)$ is contained in a $(mathbfG,F)$-split Levi subgroup $mathbfM$ of $mathbfG$ and that $mathbfG$ is defined over a field of good characteristic. In this paper, assuming a weak version of Lusztig's conjecture relating irreducible characters and characteristic functions of character sheaves holds, we considerably generalize this result by removing the condition that $mathbfM$ is split. This assumption is known to hold whenever $Z(mathbfG)$ is connected or when $mathbfG$ is a special linear or symplectic group and $mathbfG$ is defined over a sufficiently large finite field.
