Abelian characters and odd perfect numbers?
This question is about applications of abelian characters to odd perfect numbers:
Context and Definitions:
Let $n$ be a natural number and $D_n$ be the set of divisors.
We can make this set to a ring ...

Reference request: an elementary result on characters of finite abelian groups
The referee of a paper I submitted to a journal asked me to include a reference of the following elementary result on characters of finite abelian groups:
Let $A$ be a finite abelian group of order $...

Constructing an explicit extension of a continuous character on a closed subgroup of a certain locally compact abelian group
Let $ G $ be a locally compact abelian group and $ \omega: G \times G \to \mathbb{T} $ a continuous multiplier on $ G $, i.e.,
\begin{align}
\forall r,s,t \in G: \qquad
\omega(s,t) ~ \omega(r,s + t) &...

Character kernels in the lattice of subgroups of a finite abelian group
I am looking for any efforts that have been made to characterize the character kernels (equivalently, the subgroups yielding cyclic quotients) inside the lattice of subgroups of a finite abelian group....

Irreducible characters of finite abelian groups
Let $G$ be finite abelian group and $K$ a field such that $char(K)$ does not divide the order $r$ of $G$. For each divisor $d$ of $r$ let $\omega_d$ be a primitive $d$-root of unity and $a_d:=\frac{\...
