The purpose of this paper is the study of some basic properties of universal induced characters and their applications to the representation theory of the classical groups (for the definition of a universal induced character, see § 3).

The starting point was the paper [F] by E. Formanek on matrix invariants. In his paper [F], Formanek has investigated the Hilbert series for the ring of matrix invariants from the point of view of the representation theory of the general linear group and the symmetric group. In this paper we shall study polynomial concomitants of a group from the same point of view.
