Abstract

We consider complex characters of a p-group P, which are invariant under a fusion system (Formula presented.) on P. Extending a theorem of Bárcenas–Cantarero to non-saturated fusion systems, we show that the number of indecomposable (Formula presented.) -invariant characters of P is greater or equal than the number of (Formula presented.) -conjugacy classes of P. We further prove that these two quantities coincide whenever (Formula presented.) is realized by a p-solvable group. On the other hand, we observe that this is false for constrained fusion systems in general. Finally, we construct a saturated fusion system with an indecomposable (Formula presented.) -invariant character, which is not a summand of the regular character of P. This disproves a recent conjecture of Cantarero–Combariza.
