On defects of characters and decomposition numbers

Gunter Malle, Gabriel Navarro and Benjamin Sambale

Vol. 11 (2017), No. 6, 1357–1384
Abstract

We propose upper bounds for the number of modular constituents of the restriction modulo p of a complex irreducible character of a finite group, and for its decomposition numbers, in certain cases.

Keywords
decomposition numbers, defect of characters, heights of characters
