A field K is called a splitting field of a character χ of a group G if χ∈ operatorname Char_K(G), i.e., χ is afforded by a K-representation of G.\nLet T be a representation of G affording the character χ. It follows from Definition 2 that K is a splitting field of χ if and only if T is equivalent to Δ, where Δ is a K-representation of G. In other words, K is a splitting field of a character χ if and only if a representation T affording χ is realized over K. Every character of G has a splitting field (for example, C is a splitting field of any character of G). If K is a splitting field of both characters χ₁,χ₂, then K is a splitting field of χ₁+χ₂, Therefore, in studying splitting fields, we may consider irreducible characters only.\nDEFINITION 3.

In other words, K is a splitting field of a character χ if and only if a representation T affording χ is realized over K. Every character of G has a splitting field (for example, C is a splitting field of any character of G).
