 Brauer–Nesbitt theorem

In mathematics, the Brauer–Nesbitt theorem can refer to several different theorems proved by Richard Brauer and Cecil J. Nesbitt in the representation theory of finite groups.In modular representation theory,
the Brauer–Nesbitt theorem on blocks of defect zero states that a character whose order is divisible by the highest power of a prime "p" dividing the order of a finite group remains irreducible when reduced mod "p" and vanishes on all elements whose order is divisible by "p".
