Itô's theorem

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the result in representation theory. For the result in stochastic calculus, see Itô's lemma.

Itô's theorem is a result in the mathematical discipline of representation theory due to Noboru Itô. It generalizes the well-known result that the dimension of an irreducible representation of a group must divide the order of that group.

Statement[]

Given an irreducible representation V of a finite group G and a maximal normal abelian subgroup A ⊆ G, the dimension of V must divide [G:A].
