Abstract
In this investigation of character tables of finite groups we study basic sets and associated representation theoretic data for complementary sets of conjugacy classes. For the symmetric groups we find unexpected properties of characters on restricted sets of conjugacy classes, like beautiful combinatorial determinant formulae for submatrices of the character table and Cartan matrices with respect to basic sets; we observe that similar phenomena occur for the transition matrices between power sum symmetric functions to bounded partitions and the k-Schur functions defined by Lapointe and Morse. Arithmetic properties of the numbers occurring in this context are studied via generating functions.

N1 - Funding Information: The authors would like to thank the Danish Research Council (FNU) for the support of their collaboration. We also express our thanks to Anne Schilling for sharing her data on k-Schur functions at the meeting on Algebraic Combinatorixx at the Banff International Research Station (BIRS), 2011, and for pointing out a result by Lapointe and Morse. Thanks go also to the referees for their helpful suggestions and comments.
