Classifying finite monomial linear groups of prime degree in characteristic zero

Let [Formula: see text] be a prime and let [Formula: see text] be the complex field. We explicitly classify the finite solvable irreducible monomial subgroups of [Formula: see text] up to conjugacy. That is, we give a complete and irredundant list of [Formula: see text]-conjugacy class representatives as generating sets of monomial matrices. Copious structural information about non-solvable finite irreducible monomial subgroups of [Formula: see text] is also proved, enabling a classification of all such groups bar one family. We explain the obstacles in that exceptional case. For [Formula: see text], we classify all finite irreducible subgroups of [Formula: see text]. Our classifications are available publicly in Magma.
