Abstract
The conjecture that the alternating groups A n have no pairs of semiproportional irreducible characters is a corollary of a more general Hypothesis A, which is formulated in terms of pairs χ α and χ β of irreducible characters of the symmetric group S n that are semiproportional on one of the sets A n or S n \A n (here, α and β are the partitions of the number n corresponding to these characters). The investigation of the case h α11 ≠h β11 , i.e., when the (1, 1)-hooks of the Young diagrams of the partitions α and β have different lengths, is begun in this paper.
