Orthogonal irreducible representations of finite solvable groups in odd dimension

Mikko Korhonen

Abstract

We prove that if $G$ is a finite irreducible solvable subgroup of an orthogonal group $O(V,Q)$ with $\dim V$ odd, then $G$ preserves an orthogonal decomposition of $V$ into $1$-spaces. In particular $G$ is monomial. This generalizes a theorem of Rod Gow.

Theorem 1.1

Suppose that $n$ is odd. Let $G \leq O(V, Q)$ be finite irreducible solvable. Then there exists an orthogonal decomposition such that $\dim W_i = 1$ for all $1 \leq i \leq n$ and $G$ acts on $\{W_1, \ldots, W_n\}$.
