Irreducible representations of finite groups of Lie type through block theory and special conjugacy classes

Richard A. Boyce

Vol. 102 (1982), No. 2, 253–274
Abstract

This paper is concerned with the study of certain irreducible representations, over the field of complex numbers, of finite groups of Lie type, and especially with the characters afforded by these representations. The methods used are based on the theory of blocks with cyclic defect groups for certain prime different from the characteristic, called special primes, relative to which the groups have cyclic Sylow subgroups. Character values are obtained on certain regular semisimple classes, and all Deligne-Lusztig virtual characters relative to certain maximal tori are decomposed.
