Abstract:It is well known that finite groups with exactly two character degrees have an abelian derived subgroup and, consequently, are solvable. Let $G$ be a finite group and $N$ a normal subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we prove that normal subgroups possessing exactly two degrees of minimal $G$-invariant characters are solvable. Furthermore, it is shown that if these degrees are $\{1, f\}$ for some integer $f$, then either $f$ is a prime power or the commutator subgroup $[N,G]$ is abelian. Whether $[N, G]$ is abelian when $f$ is a prime power remains an open problem. Specifically, we prove that this holds when $f=p$.
