The probability that a character value is zero for the symmetric group

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider random character values X(g) of the symmetric group on n symbols, where X is chosen at random from the set of irreducible characters and g is chosen at random from the group, and we show that X(g)=0 with probability tending to one as n tends to infinity.
