Definition

Symbol-free definition

A finite subgroup of a group is termed order-dominating if every other subgroup whose order divides its order, is conjugate to a subgroup contained in it.

Definition with symbols

Let G be a group and H be a finite subgroup. Then, H is termed order-dominating in G if, for any subgroup K \le G such that the order of K divides the order of G, there exists g \in G such that gKg^{-1} \le H.
