Character factorizations for representations of GL(n,C) (2210.03544v2)

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to give another proof of a theorem of D.Prasad, which calculates the character of an irreducible representation of $\text{GL}(mn,\mathbb{C})$ at the diagonal elements of the form $\underline{t} \cdot c_n$, where $\underline{t}=(t_1,t_2,\cdots,t_m)$ $\in$ $(\mathbb{C}^*)^{m}$ and $c_n=(1,\omega_n,\omega_n^{2},\cdots,\omega_n^{n-1})$, where $\omega_n=e^{\frac{2\pi \imath}{n}}$, and expresses it as a product of certain characters for $\text{GL}(m,\mathbb{C})$ at $\underline{t}^n$.
