Abstract: | LetG(F
q
) be a finite classical group whereq is odd and the centre ofG is connected. We show that there exists a set of irreducible characters ofG(F
q
) such that the corresponding matrix of scalar products with the characters of Kawanaka’s generalized Gelfand-Graev representations
is square unitriangular. This uses in an essential way Lusztig’s theory of character sheaves. As an application we prove that
there exists an ordinary basic set of 2-modular Brauer characters and that the decomposition matrix of the principal 2-block
ofG(F
q
) has a lower unitriangular shape. |
