Representation growth of maximal class groups: various exceptional cases

This paper is a sequel to “Representation growth of maximal class groups: non-exceptional primes”. We use a constructive method to calculate some exceptional cases of $p$-local representation zeta functions of a family of finitely generated nilpotent groups $M_n$ with maximal nilpotency class. Using the machinery of the constructive method from the prequel paper we construct all irreducible representations of degree $p^N$ for all $N\in \mathbb{N}$ for the group $M_{p+1}$ for a fixed prime $p$. We also construct all irreducible representations of degree $2^N$ for the group $M_4$. Together with the main result from the prequel, this gives us a complete understanding of the irreducible representations of the groups $M_3$ and $M_4$, along with their global representation zeta functions.
