We consider the representation theory of a Hecke algebra H(n) of type A at a primitive lth root of unity, where l is a (not necessarily prime) positive integer. We assign a “Brauer character” to an H(n)-module. This is a class function on the set of l-regular elements of the symmetric group S n . We prove an analogue of Brauer’s orthogonality relations. As an application of the assignment of characters we show that the determinant of the Cartan matrix divides a power of l. A precise formula for this determinant has recently been obtained by Brundan and Kleshchev. They show in particular that this is a power of l, verifying a conjecture of A. Mathas.
