Monomial representation

In the mathematical fields of representation theory and group theory, a linear representation

is a monomial representation if there is a finite-index subgroup

and a one-dimensional linear representation

is equivalent to the induced representation

Alternatively, one may define it as a representation whose image is in the monomial matrices.

may be finite groups, so that induced representation has a classical sense.

The monomial representation is only a little more complicated than the permutation representation of

It is necessary only to keep track of scalars coming from

applied to elements of

To define the monomial representation, we first need to introduce the notion of monomial space.

A monomial space is a triple

is a finite-dimensional complex vector space,

is a finite set and

is a family of one-dimensional subspaces of

be a group, the monomial representation of

is a group homomorphism

induces an action by permutation of
