Normal Subgroup

normal

Let H≤G be normal if:

NG(H)=G

(see Normalizer). Which means you get the equivalence of Equivalences for Normal Subgroups.

We'll use the notation K⊴G when K is normal to G.

Example

Recall our Left and Right Cosets#Examples G=S3 with H=⟨(1 2)⟩={1,(1 2)}. Then we saw that:

(1 3)H≠H(1 3)

thus H is not normal. On the other hand if we have:

K=⟨(1 2 3)⟩={1,(1 2 3),(1 3 2)}

is normal.
