Finite groups and non-vanishing elements
An element \(g\) of a finite group \(G\) is called non-vanishing if \(\chi (g) \not= 0\) for any irreducible ordinary character \(\chi\) of \(G\). In this paper, the authors show that each element of \(Z(P) \cap O_p(G)\) is non-vanishing, where \(P\) is a Sylow \(p\)-subgroup of \(G\) and \(O_p(G)\) is the largest normal \(p\)-subgroup. The same result has been obtained by \textit{J. Brough} [J. Algebra 460, 387--391 (2016; Zbl 1343.20010)].
