The rings we will investigate are the ring of modular characters, the ring of characters over a number field, in particular, the field of real numbers and the ring of rational characters of a finite p−group. We also find the image of primitive idempotents of the algebra of the complex and modular character rings under the corresponding canonical induction formulae. The thesis also contains a summary of the theory of the canonical induction formula and a review of the induction theorems that are used to construct the formulae mentioned above.vii, 46 leavesEnglishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCanonical inductionprimitive idempotentsrational characters of p−groups,real charactersmodular charactersQA171 .C67 2004Burnside problem.ThesisBILKUTUPB084008
