The codegree isomorphism conjecture for finite simple groups

About 2 years old · traced to

Let GG be a finite group. For an irreducible character χ\chi of GG, define its codegree by

cod⁡(χ)=∣G:ker⁡(χ)∣χ(1).\operatorname{cod}(\chi)=\frac{|G:\operatorname{ker}(\chi)|}{\chi(1)}.

Let cod⁡(G)\operatorname{cod}(G) denote the set of codegrees of irreducible characters of GG.

The codegree isomorphism conjecture. Let HH be a finite nonabelian simple group and GG a finite group. Then

cod⁡(G)⊆cod⁡(H)if and only ifG≅H.\operatorname{cod}(G)\subseteq\operatorname{cod}(H)\quad\text{if and only if}\quad G\cong H.

This is proposed as a stronger version of the codegree isomorphism conjecture, whose equality hypothesis has been confirmed for several families of simple groups. The supplied text does not give a resolution of the stronger version.
