A question arising from When do the representation theory sizes of conjugacy classes and squares of degrees of irreps give the same partition for a finite groupsgroup? |

I should admit the question below does not have a serious motivation. But still I found it somehow natural. Let $G$ be a finite group of order $n$ with $h$ conjugacy classes. If $c_1,\ldots,c_h$ are the orders of the conjugacy classes of $G$, then clearly $n=c_1+c_2+\ldots+c_h$. Let now $\pi_1,\ldots,\pi_h$ be the pairwise non-isomorphic, irreducible complex representations of $G$, then it G$. It is well known that another partition of $n$ of length $h$ is given by the squares of the degrees $d_i$'s of the $\pi_i$'s: $n=d_1^2+d_2^2+\ldots+d_h^2$. Question: Assume that, up to reordering, the two partitions of $n$ described above are the same. Then what can we say about $G$? Is $G$ forced to be abelian? |
