Subgroup properties

Conjugate-permutable subgroup

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a conjugate-permutable subgroup is a subgroup that commutes with all its conjugate subgroups. The term was introduced by Tuval Foguel in 1997 and arose in the context of the proof that for finite groups, every quasinormal subgroup is a subnormal subgroup. Clearly, every quasinormal subgroup is conjugate-permutable. In fact, it is true that for a finite group: * Every maximal conjugate-permutable subgroup is normal. * Every conjugate-permutable subgroup is a conjugate-permutable subgroup of every intermediate subgroup containing it. * Combining the above two facts, every conjugate-permutable subgroup is subnormal. Conversely, every 2-subnormal subgroup (that is, a subgroup that is a normal subgroup of a normal subgroup) is conjugate-permutable. (Wikipedia).

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

Permutation Groups and Symmetric Groups | Abstract Algebra

We introduce permutation groups and symmetric groups. We cover some permutation notation, composition of permutations, composition of functions in general, and prove that the permutations of a set make a group (with certain details omitted). #abstractalgebra #grouptheory We will see the

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

Quotient groups

The idea of a quotient group follows easily from cosets and Lagrange's theorem. In this video, we start with a normal subgroup and develop the idea of a quotient group, by viewing each coset (together with the normal subgroup) as individual mathematical objects in a set. This set, under

Dihedral group example

In this veideo we continue our look in to the dihedral groups, specifically, the dihedral group with six elements. We note that two of the permutation in the group are special in that they commute with all the other elements in the group. In the next video I'll show you that these two el

Abstract Algebra: Using conjugacy classes, we give a second proof that A5, the alternating group on 5 letters, is simple. We adapt the first proof that A5 is simple to show that An is simple when n is greater than 5. The key step is to show that any normal subgroup with more than the id

Normal subgroups

Before we carry on with our coset journey, we need to discover when the left- and right cosets are equal to each other. The obvious situation is when our group is Abelian. The other situation is when the subgroup is a normal subgroup. In this video I show you what a normal subgroup is a
