Abstract: It was shown by Formanek and Sibley that the group determinant characterizes a finite group $G$ up to isomorphism. Hoehnke and Johnson\,(independently the authors\,---\,using an argument of Mansfield) showed the corresponding result for $k$-characters, $k=1,2,3.$ The notion of $k$-characters dates back to Frobenius. They are determined by the group determinant and may be derived {from} the character table $CT(G)$ provided one knows additionally the functions $$\Phi_k: G\times\cdots \times G\to C(G),\ \ (g_1,\cdots, g_k)\to C_{g_1\cdot\dots\cdot g_k},$$ where $C(G)=\{C_g,\ g\in G\}$ denotes the set of conjugacy classes of $G$. The object of the paper is to present criteria for finite groups (more precisely for soluble groups $G$ and $H$ which are both semi-direct products of a similar type) when 1. $G$ and $H$ have isomorphic spectral tables (i.e., they form a Brauer pair), 2. $G$ and $H$ have isomorphic table of marks (in particular the Burnside rings are isomorphic), 3. $G$ and $H$ have the same 2-characters. Using this the authors construct two non-isomorphic soluble groups for which all these three representation-theoretical invariants coincide.
