Fix a prime p and a Sylow p-subgroup P of a finite group G, and write N = NG P . The (still unproved) “McKay conjecture” asserts that Irrp′ G = Irrp′ N , or in other words that G and N have equal numbers of irreducible characters with degrees not divisible by p. (J. McKay proposed his conjecture in 1971, but only for simple groups and only for p = 2; the first formal statement of the general form of the conjecture was given in 1975 by Alperin in [1].) The McKay conjecture is now known to be valid for many classes of groups. In 1973, the first author proved the conjecture for (solvable) groups of odd order and for all solvable groups when p = 2. (This result appears [3].) Subsequently, T. R. Wolf gave a proof valid for every solvable group and E. C. Dade verified the conjecture for all p-solvable groups. A simpler proof for p-solvable groups was then given by Okuyama and Wajima in [10]. (Since our concern in this paper is only with p-solvable groups, we will not mention explicitly the many other known cases.)
