On permutation characters of finite group

Let $G$ be a finite group and \( M \) be a maximal subgroup of \( G \). We call every irreducible constituent \( \chi \) of \( (1_M)^G \) a \( \mathcal{P} \)-character of \( G \) with respect to \( M \). In this paper, we prove that all $\mathcal{P}$-characters of $G$ are monomial if and only if $G$ is solvable, which solves a question posed by Qian and Yang.
