What was their sacred duty,
And told the daughters, young and old,
That character was beauty?

Unique decomposition of tensor products of irreducible representations of simple algebraic groups
A calculation with the characters of the tensor product, indicates that the term corresponding to the second highest coefficient of x1 in the corresponding product of the characters are different.
Unique decomposition of tensor products of irreducible representations of simple algebraic groups
Thus, we arrive at the surprising conclusion that the deterministic character of the theory adopted, including quantum mechanics if the process of measurement in excluded, is reflected in their non-Markov character.
From Knowledge, Knowability and the Search for Objective Randomness to a New Vision of Complexity
In [Ha], a character χσ is defined as the induction of a linear character Ψσ from Zσ to Sn .

We can expand the r.h.s. of (21) and (22) in terms of the antisymmetrized product of Gamma matrices only when the division-algebra character of the Gamma matrices coincides with the division-algebra character of spinors.
Hermitian versus holomorphic complex and quaternionic generalized supersymmetries of the M-theory. A classification
As a corollary we establish a character formula for all simple weight g-modules except those which have singular atypical central character for the cases of g = sl(m|1) and g = osp(2|n).
On the structure and characters of weight modules
The Chern character can be obtained from the ordinary Chern character via deformation parameter.

This proves that the representation in ˘Mp,λ/2 defines a character of the center of ˘U(g) and therefore a character of I(G).
Quantum conjugacy classes of simple matrix groups
The character values of the irreducible representations λ+ and λ− can be expressed in terms of character values of χλ (µ); for the conjugacy class µ not equal to the set of main diagonal hooks of λ (see the definition of hook below), it is given by χλ (µ) .

Pseudo-random graphs
From the exact sequence 1 → π1 (U y , η) → π1 (Uy , η) → Gal(Fq /Fq ) → 1, and (23), it follows that L on Uy “is” a character of π1 (Uy , η) which comes from a character of Gal(Fq /Fq ).
Exponential sums over definable subsets of finite fields
The main idea is that one starts with a fixed L-function and a family of “characters”, and the family of L-functions is produced by twisting the fixed L-function by the family of characters.
