Characters of finite fields - Reference request
Let $\mathbf{F}_q$ ($q=p^f$) be a finite field. We are interested in the characters $\chi: \mathbf{F}_q\rightarrow \mathbf{K}$ ($\chi(0)=0$) where the $ \mathbf{K}$ is an alg.closed field of ...

Reference request concerning splitting fields for groups that are related to special symmetric groups
Denote the symmetric group of order $n!$ by $S_n$. Let $H:=S_p$ for an odd prime $p$.
Every finite field $k$ is a splitting field $(^*)$ for $kH$, in particular $k:=\mathbb{F}_p$.
Questions:
Is $k:=\...
