Abstract:
Let G be the finite unitary group Un(\tenbx Fq) over a finite field \tenbx Fq of characteristic p. Let U be a Sylow p-subgroup of G. We prove that, for any irreducible character Ï of G that is contained in a certain class, there is a linear character λ of U such that (λ^G, Ï)_G=1. As an application, we shall determine the local Schur indices of an irreducible character of G which belongs to such class.
