Imprimitive, Irreducible Complex Characters of the Alternating Group

The purpose of this paper is to list all of the characters of An, the alternating group, mentioned in the title. The same problem for the symmetric group, Sn, was dealt with by the authors in [1]. We showr here that, apart from a few exceptions, the imprimitive, irreducible complex characters of An fall naturally into two infinite families. (Throughout this paper characters are taken over the complex numbers.)
