The character table of a maximal subgroup of the Monster

R. W. Barraclough and R. A. Wilson



Abstract: We calculate the character table of the maximal subgroup of the Monster N(3B) isomorphic to a group of shape 3+1+12 · 2 · Suz : 2, and also of the group 31+12 : 6 · Suz · 2, which has the former as a quotient.
The strategy is to induce characters from the inertia groups in 31+12 : 6 · Suz : 2 of characters of 31+12. We obtain the quotient map to N(3B) computationally, and our careful concrete approach allows us to produce class fusions between our tables and various tables in the GAP library.
