Abstract: | In this article we determine the irreducible ordinary characters cr \chi_r of a finite group G occurring in a transitive permutation representation (1M )G of a given subgroup M of G, and their multiplicities mr = ((1M)G, cr) 1 0 m_r = ((1_{M})^G, \chi_r) \neq 0 by means of a new explicit formula calculating the coefficients ark of the central idempotents er = ?k=1d ark Dk e_r = \sum\limits_{k=1}^{d} a_{rk} D_k in the intersection algebra B \cal B of (1M )G generated by the intersection matrices Dk corresponding to the double coset decomposition G = èk=1d Mxk M G = \bigcup\limits_{k=1}^{d} Mx_{k} M .¶Furthermore, an explicit formula is given for the calculation of the character values cr(x) \chi_{r}(x) of each element x ? G x \in G . Using this character formula we obtain a new practical algorithm for the calculation of a substantial part of the character table of G. |
