For a subgroup , a character of and a character of ,
It follows directly from the induced-character formula because .
Let be prime. If the Kronecker product of two irreducible characters of is irreducible, then one of is or . Comparing the two self-products shows that only one may contain the standard character; the restriction branching rule then makes one partition rectangular, and primality makes that rectangle a single row or column.
For the standard inclusions ,
