The many unanswerable questions (1) which arise in the study of finite groups have lead to a review of fundamental ideas, e.g. the Theorem of Burnside (3, p. 299; 2, 6) that if λ be any faithful irreducible representation of G over a field K, then every irreducible representation of G over K is contained in some tensor power of λ.
