We determine the positive integers n for which there exist a solvable group G and two non-conjugate subgroups of index n in G that induce the same permutation character.
We show that S n has at most n 6Γ11+o(1) conjugacy classes of primitive maximal subgroups. This improves an n c log 3 n bound given by Babai. We conclude that the number of conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups of S n is of the form ( 12 +o(1))n. It also follows that, for large n, S n has less than
fect or the grading of R is simpler e.g., R is a crossed product or a skew . group ring . We apply our solution of Problem A to the study of a more concrete problem: Problem B. Characterize semisimple strongly G-graded rings.
We define noncommutative analogues of the characters of the symmetric group which are induced by transitive cyclic subgroups (cyclic characters). We investigate their properties by means of the formalism of noncommutative symmetric functions. The main result is a multiplication formula whose commuta
