Let G be a finite group and let p be a prime number. In this talk, we discuss local properties of G that can be read off from its character table. More precisely, we characterize globally when the principal block of the normalizer of a Sylow p-subgroup has one simple module for p odd. We also talk about the p=2 case of this problem, which remains open.

This is joint work with G.Navarro and P.H.Tiep.
