Restriction of odd degree characters of $$\mathfrak{S}_n$$. (English) Zbl 1378.20013
Summary: Let $$n$$ and $$k$$ be natural numbers such that $$2^k < n$$. We study the restriction to $$\mathfrak{S}_{n-2^k}$$ of odd-degree irreducible characters of the symmetric group $$\mathfrak{S}_n$$. This analysis completes the study begun in [A. Ayyer et al., Sémin. Lothar. Comb. 75, B75g, 13 p. (2016; Zbl 1339.05014)] and recently developed in [I. M. Isaacs et al., J. Algebra 478, 271–282 (2017; Zbl 1423.20006)].
