Alperin-McKay natural correspondences in solvable and symmetric groups for the prime $p=2$

Abstract

Let $G$ be a finite solvable or symmetric group and let $B$ be a $2$-block of $G$. We construct a canonical correspondence between the irreducible characters of height zero in $B$ and those in its Brauer first main correspondent. For symmetric groups our bijection is compatible with restriction of characters.
