Computational Modular Character Theory

Abstract

This book describes some computational methods to deal with modular characters of finite groups. It is the theoretical background of the MOC system of the same authors. This system was, and is still used, to compute the modular character tables of sporadic simple groups.

This version of the book was completed in November 11, 1993. It constitutes a slight revision of the original, dating back to July 27, 1992. The revised version contains some additional references
