Oct 18, 2022 at 3:20 comment added Venkataramana @LSpice: you may well be right. That is why I said " perhaps". I think there are results analogous to Green's for complex representations of Chevalley groups over finite fields.

Oct 17, 2022 at 17:23 comment added LSpice @Venkataramana, although, as you know, the process of decomposing from general to special linear groups can be quite involved …. A while back I needed a write-up of the case $n = 2$, and even that is (or was for me) tough to find explicitly written up anywhere.

Oct 17, 2022 at 17:17 comment added Venkataramana The following paper contains a descriptions of irreducible characters of $GL(n,F_p)$, from which perhaps the analogous result for $SL(n,F)p)$ may be deduced. Green, J. A. “The Characters of the Finite General Linear Groups.” Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, vol. 80, no. 2, 1955, pp. 402–47. JSTOR, doi.org/10.2307/1992997.
