Methods and questions in character degrees of finite groups. (English) Zbl 07739296
Summary: We present some variations on some of the main open problems on character degrees. We collect some of the methods that have proven to be very useful to work on these problems. These methods are also useful to solve certain problems on zeros of characters, character kernels and fields of values of characters.
