Diagonalizability of elements of a group algebra

Let G be a group and K a fields of characteristic 0. Let f be an element of the group algebra K[G]. Let X(f) be the matrix of the left-multiplication action of f on K[G]. We determine the eigenvalues and their multiplicities of X(f) when f is a central element of G, when f is an element of the desce...

Description
Summary:Let G be a group and K a fields of characteristic 0. Let f be an element of the group algebra K[G]. Let X(f) be the matrix of the left-multiplication action of f on K[G]. We determine the eigenvalues and their multiplicities of X(f) when f is a central element of G, when f is an element of the descent algebra of K[G] for a coxeter group G, and when f is a special element of K[G] for a symmetric group G.
