Exercise

Compute the character table of \(S_4\)

Solution

Let \(G\) be a finite group

Let \(g \in G\)

Let \(\psi \text{ and } \phi \in \mathbb{C}^G\)

There is an inner product defined as \( (\psi , \phi)_G = \frac{1}{\left|G\right|} \sum_{y \in G} \psi (y) \phi (y)^{*} \)

We know that \( \psi_r , \psi_s \) are orthonormal if \( (\psi_r , \psi_s)_G = \delta_{rs} \)



Charactertable looks like:

\(S_4\) \(e\) \(6C_2\) \(8C_3\) \(6C_4\) \(3C_{2,2}\)
\(U\) 1 1 1 1 1
\(U'\) 1 -1 1 -1 1
\(V\) 3 1 0 -1 -1
\(V'\) 3 -1 0 1 -1
\(W\) 2 0 -1 0 2
