Klappentext Representation theory and character theory have proved essential in the study of finite simple groups since their early development by Frobenius. Zusammenfassung Representation theory and character theory have proved essential in the study of finite simple groups since their early development by Frobenius. The author begins by presenting the foundations of character theory in a style accessible to advanced undergraduates requiring only a basic knowledge of group theory and general algebra.
