Nov 21, 2014 at 20:05 | comment | added | Frieder Ladisch | In fact, this seems to be a duplicate of the question linked by @YemonChoi, only that the question here is formulated a little better. I have made my comment an answer to the old question, which already had an answer. I think this question can be closed as duplicate. | |

Nov 19, 2014 at 12:47 | comment | added | Frieder Ladisch | The answer is yes, and I think this is clear, once you have shown that there is a well-defined action of $H$ on the conjugacy classes: Let $\varepsilon$ be a primitive $|G|$-th root of unity. Then the Galois group $\Gamma$ of $\mathbb{Q}(\varepsilon)/\mathbb{Q}$ acts on the conjugacy classes, and $H$ is a factor group of $\Gamma $. It is well known and not difficult to show that the orbits of $\Gamma$ are the rational conjugacy classes. (c.f. Serre, Linear Representations of Finite Groups, §12.4.) | |
