Abstract: Let $DeltacolonGomathrmGL(n,K)$ be an absolutely irreducible representation of an arbitrary group $G$ over an arbitrary field $K$; let $chicolonGoKcolongmapstomathrmtr(Delta(g))$ be its character. In this paper, we assume knowledge of $chi$ only, and study which properties of $Delta$ can be inferred. We prove criteria to decide whether $Delta$ preserves a form, is realizable over a subfield, or acts imprimitively on $K^{nimes1}$. If $K$ is finite, this allows us to decide whether the image of $Delta$ belongs to certain Aschbacher classes.
