(http://hdl.handle.net/2263/70706)We classify finite non-solvable groups with a faithful primitive complex irreducible character that vanishes on a unique conjugacy class. Our results answer a question of Dixon and Rahnamai Barghi and suggest an extension of Burnside’s classical theorem on zeros of characters.en© de Gruyter 2020Primitive charactersZeros of charactersBurnside’s theoremCharacter degreesArticle
