  2. Character sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_sum

    In mathematics, a character sum is a sum () of values of a Dirichlet character χ modulo N, taken over a given range of values of n.Such sums are basic in a number of questions, for example in the distribution of quadratic residues, and in particular in the classical question of finding an upper bound for the least quadratic non-residue modulo N.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_theory

    If a character of the finite group G is restricted to a subgroup H, then the result is also a character of H. Every character value χ(g) is a sum of n m-th roots of unity, where n is the degree (that is, the dimension of the associated vector space) of the representation with character χ and m is the order of g.

    In mathematics, a Jacobi sum is a type of character sum formed with Dirichlet characters. Simple examples would be Jacobi sums J ( χ , ψ ) for Dirichlet characters χ , ψ modulo a prime number p , defined by

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murnaghan–Nakayama_rule

    Note that the right-hand side is a sum of characters for symmetric groups that have smaller order than that of the symmetric group we started with on the left-hand side. In other words, this version of the Murnaghan-Nakayama rule expresses a character of the symmetric group S n in terms of the characters of smaller symmetric groups S k with k<n.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters

    95 characters; the 52 alphabet characters belong to the Latin script. The remaining 43 belong to the common script. The 33 characters classified as ASCII Punctuation & Symbols are also sometimes referred to as ASCII special characters. Often only these characters (and not other Unicode punctuation) are what is meant when an organization says a ...

  8. Algebraic character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_character

    Algebraic characters are defined for locally-finite weight modules and are additive, i.e. the character of a direct sum of modules is the sum of their characters.On the other hand, although one can define multiplication of the formal exponents by the formula = + and extend it to their finite linear combinations by linearity, this does not make into a ring, because of the possibility of formal ...

    Let be a finite groupe and () its irreducible characters. Let us denote, like Serre did in his book, () the -module .Since all of 's characters are a linear combination of () with positive integer coefficient, the elements of () are the difference of 2 characters of .
