Character-free proof that Frobenius kernel is a normal subgroup?
The question is in the title, but here is some background/reminders:
A subgroup $H\neq\{1\}$ of a finite group $G$ is called a Frobenius complement if $H\cap H^g = \{1\}$ for all $g\in G\backslash H$ …

Finite groups with integral character table
There is no complete classification, but some structural results are known. To give you something to search for: such groups are called $\mathbb{Q}$-groups. There is a whole book devoted to their stru …

Branching rule from symmetric group $S_{2n}$ to hyperoctahedral group $H_n$
This is an answer to the second question: I ran an experiment with $S_6$ (which was the best guess due to the famous "oddness" of 6). There are two subgroups in $S_6$ isomorphic to this involution cen …

For which finite groups $G$ is every character a virtual permutation character?
No classification of such groups is known. As you say, for every character to be a virtual permutation character, necessary conditions are that
all irreducible characters are $\mathbb{Q}$-valued; eq …

Character table for the affine group of Z/p^nZ
The groups you are interested in are sometimes called false Tate extensions in number theorists' jargon. They are Galois groups of the Galois closures of extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ obtained by adjoini …

Irreducible mod-p representation of a semidirect product with trivial p-core
The following is a direct proof that any extension of $G$ by $V$ splits. It is taken from a joint paper of mine with Tim Dokchitser, where the proof starts in the last paragraph of page 12.
First, no …

Generalisation of the Witt–Berman induction theorem
$\DeclareMathOperator{\Aut}{Aut}\DeclareMathOperator{\Ind}{Ind}$I believe I can prove the following induction theorem (modulo carefully checking a few details), and I would like to know whether this i …

A question on some computation of group cohomologies
This is not a complete answer, but it's too long for a comment. Here is what I would try (for $G=C_p\rtimes C_2$ for any $p$): your $M$ sits in the exact sequence
$$
0\rightarrow M\rightarrow \mathbb{ …

Reference for fact about reduction mod $p$ of a representation of a finite group
I don't know of just a citation, but here is a pretty quick way to deduce this from the literature (I imagine that this might be the argument you had in mind, in which case apologies for telling you t …
