Navarro's refinement of the McKay conjecture

About 9 years old · traced to

Let GG be a finite group, let pp be a prime, and let PP be a Sylow pp-subgroup of GG. Write Irr⁡p′(G)\operatorname{Irr}_{p'}(G) for the set of irreducible characters of GG whose degrees are not divisible by pp, and similarly for Irr⁡p′(N⁡G(P))\operatorname{Irr}_{p'}(\operatorname{N}_G(P)). For a nonnegative integer ee, let σ∈Gal⁡(Q∣G∣/Q)\sigma \in \operatorname{Gal}(\mathbb{Q}_{|G|}/\mathbb{Q}) be an (e,p)(e,p)-Galois automorphism.

Navarro's refinement. There exists a bijection between the σ\sigma-invariant characters in

Irr⁡p′(N⁡G(P))\operatorname{Irr}_{p'}(\operatorname{N}_G(P))

and the σ\sigma-invariant characters in

Irr⁡p′(G).\operatorname{Irr}_{p'}(G).

This refines the McKay conjecture by requiring compatibility with specified Galois automorphisms. The stated consequence was proved by Navarro, Tiep and Turull, so this formulation is resolved.
