Abstract:
It is well known that the branching of representations of the groups $\operatorname{GL}(n,q)$ under the parabolic restriction is simple. Apparently, an elementary proof of this important fact has not been found so far. We present such a proof, which uses a method not standard for the
representation theory of finite groups.
Keywords:representation of $\operatorname{GL}(n,q)$, simplicity of branching, parabolic restriction.
