May 14, 2012 at 3:01 comment added Anvita (contd)...some other character. In order for this to be a Brauer relation, $\theta$ must be a permutation character. But how do we know that it really is one?
May 14, 2012 at 3:00 comment added Anvita @Alex: Thank you! I did not realize that there is a nontrivial and interesting theory behind all this. I still have one question though. You say that my question is equvalent to the existence of a nontrivial Brauer relation for $G$. Of course, if such a relation exists then the answer to the original question is negative. However, the converse is not so obvious to me. Suppose that the answer is negative, i.e. my permutation character $\chi=\sum_i\mathbb{C}[G/H_i]$, where all $H_i≠1$, has also the form $\chi$=$\rho$+$\theta$, where $\rho$ is the regular character and $\theta$ is ...
