Character degrees and local subgroups of 𝜋-separable groups

Abstract

Let G G be a finite { p , q } \{p,q \} -solvable group for different primes p p and q q . Let P ∈ Syl p ( G ) P \in \text {Syl}_{p}(G) and Q ∈ Syl q ( G ) Q \in \text {Syl}_{q}(G) be such that P Q = Q P PQ=QP . We prove that every χ ∈ Irr ( G ) \chi \in \text {Irr}(G) of p ′ p^{\prime } -degree has q ′ q^{\prime } -degree if and only if N G ( P ) ⊆ N G ( Q ) \mathbf {N}_{G}(P) \subseteq \mathbf {N}_{G}(Q) and C Q ′ ( P ) = 1 \mathbf {C}_{Q^{\prime }}(P)=1 .
