Abstract

Generalizing an idea in [13], we exhibit some, in general nonhomomorphic, bijections between finite groups which preserve the absolute value of character sums. As a consequence, the existence of a single difference set, relative difference set, building set etc. in certain groups implies the existence of such objects in many other groups.
