Definition

Symbol-free definition

A subgroup of a group is termed a characteristically complemented subgroup or characteristic retract if it satisfies the following equivalent conditions:

  1. There is a retraction (viz an idempotent endomorphism) on the group, whose image is that subgroup, and whose kernel is a characteristic subgroup.
  2. There is a characteristic subgroup that is a permutable complement to it.
  3. There is a characteristic subgroup that is a lattice complement to it.
