Abstract
We define weakly quasi-primitive characters of solvable groups as a generalization of quasi-primitive characters, and present three main results about the zeros and the values for these characters, which in turn strengthen the corresponding theorems for quasi-primitive characters due to G. Navarro and T. Wilde.
