# Restriction of Odd Degree Characters of $\mathfrak{S}_n$

## TL;DR

This paper investigates how odd-degree irreducible characters of the symmetric group restrict to smaller symmetric groups, completing previous studies and enhancing understanding of character restrictions in representation theory.

## Contribution

It extends prior work by fully characterizing the restriction of odd-degree irreducible characters of symmetric groups for certain cases, advancing the theoretical framework.

## Key findings

- Complete characterization of restrictions for odd-degree characters
- Connections to previous partial results and conjectures
- Enhanced understanding of symmetric group representations

## Abstract

Let $n$ and $k$ be natural numbers such that $2^k < n$. We study the restriction to $\mathfrak{S}_{n-2^k}$ of odd-degree irreducible characters of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. This analysis completes the study begun in [Ayyer A., Prasad A., Spallone S., Sem. Lothar. Combin. 75 (2015), Art. B75g, 13 pages] and recently developed in [Isaacs I.M., Navarro G., Olsson J.B., Tiep P.H., J. Algebra 478 (2017), 271-282].
