We prove that $G$ and $S$ have the same set of irreducible complex character degrees. Meanwhile, $G$ is centerless and is not isomorphic to $S \\times A$ for any finite abelian group $A$. This provides a counterexample to Huppert's conjecture.","category":"research","comments":0,"disputed":false,"division":"math","mentions":0,"discussed":0,"published":"2026-10-26","reactions":{},"withdrawn":false,"authorship":"no-human-author-claimed","formalized":false,"human_understanding":"all"}
