Abstract
For every q ∈ N we define a class function on finite symmetric groups, which generalizes the sign character. We show that this class function is a generalized character. In case q a prime we determine all its irreducible constituents. As an application we show that a certain inner product on the representation ring of a symmetric group can be evaluated for Young modules by the aid of this class function.
