Subgroup properties

Conjugacy-closed subgroup

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a subgroup of a group is said to be conjugacy-closed if any two elements of the subgroup that are conjugate in the group are also conjugate in the subgroup. An alternative characterization of conjugacy-closed normal subgroups is that all class automorphisms of the whole group restrict to class automorphisms of the subgroup. The following facts are true regarding conjugacy-closed subgroups: * Every central factor (a subgroup that may occur as a factor in some central product) is a conjugacy-closed subgroup. * Every conjugacy-closed normal subgroup is a transitively normal subgroup. * The property of being conjugacy-closed is transitive, that is, every conjugacy-closed subgroup of a conjugacy-closed subgroup is conjugacy-closed. The property of being conjugacy-closed is sometimes also termed as being conjugacy stable. It is a known result that for finite field extensions, the general linear group of the base field is a conjugacy-closed subgroup of the general linear group over the extension field. This result is typically referred to as a stability theorem. A subgroup is said to be strongly conjugacy-closed if all intermediate subgroups are also conjugacy-closed. (Wikipedia).

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 3.7: Conjugacy classes

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 3.7: Conjugacy classes We were first introduced to the concept of conjugacy when studying normal subgroups: H is normal if every conjugate of H is equal to H. Alternatively, we can fix an element x of G, and ask: "which elements can be written as conjugates o

Icosahedral symmetry - conjugacy classes and simplicity

How do we prove the rotational symmetries of icosahedron form a simple group? But wait, how do we prove *any* group is simple? The key to that involves the concept of conjugacy classes. This video explains intuitively why a normal subgroup has to be a union of conjugacy classes. This vide

Why Normal Subgroups are Necessary for Quotient Groups

Proof that cosets are disjoint: https://youtu.be/uxhAUmgSHnI In order for a subgroup to create a quotient group (also known as factor group), it must be a normal subgroup. That means that when we conjugate an element in the subgroup, it stays in the subgroup. In this video, we explain wh
