Jan 12, 2016 at 11:43 | comment | added | Derek Holt | Examples like the one you mention (cyclic extensions of simple groups) are in the ATLAS, and you can see easily which characters of $M_{12}$ are stabilized by the automorphism and extend to a character of the larger group, and which ones are not stabilized and give rise to an irreducible induced representation of $M_{12}.2$ of twice the degree. | |
Jan 12, 2016 at 11:25 | comment | added | Geoff Robinson | In general, you need to understand Clifford's Theorem, and for each irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$, you need to know the stabilizer subgroup in $A$ of $\chi$. Even with this knowledge, it is in general not straightforward to compute the character table of $GA$, and I know of no single "recipe". | |
