Associated Representations of finite pattern groups

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the construction of irreducible representations of finite pattern groups in terms of Panov's associative polarization, which is a finite-field analogue of Kirillov's orbital method. Using this construction, first, we are able to classify the irreducible representations of the unipotent radical of the standard parabolic subgroups of ${\mathrm{GL}}_n$ with 4 parts; second, we can parameterize irreducible characters of degree $q$ in terms of coadjoint orbits of cardinality $q^2$, for any finite pattern groups $G$ over ${\mathbb{F}}_q,$ where ${\mathbb{F}}_q$ is a finite field with $q$ elements.
