Dear Forum, Dear Saad Awaid,

I am trying to write some code to  find Z(chi);

where Z(\chi ) = \{ g \in G\left| {\left| {\chi (g)} \right| = \chi (1)\} } \right

it seems that GAP doesn't contain function to find the magnitude for complex number?

|x|^2=x* conjugate(x), complex conjugate denoted by
GaloisCyc(x,-1);

Thus you could check whether chi[g]*GaloisCyc(chi[g],-1)=chi[1]^2

If chi is a proper class function, you also coud simply use
CenterOfCharacter
instead of writing your own function.

Best,
