Trilinear Forms for GL2(𝔽q) via conjugacy classes
Abstract
It is well known that for a finite group G, the number of elements in Irr(G) the set of irreducible representations up to isomorphism is the same as the number of elements in Conj(G) the set of conjugacy classes in G although there is no natural bijection between these two sets. For G=GL2(𝔽q), where 𝔽q is the finite field with q elements, we give a bijection between Irr(G) and Conj(G), which behaves well with the tensor product of irreducible representations on one side and the product of conjugacy classes on the other. In particular, we relate the dimension of the trilinear forms with the multiplicity of the identity element in the triple product of the corresponding conjugacy classes.
