Definition

Symbol-free definition

A group is said to be complete if it satisfies the following equivalent conditions:

  • It is centerless and every automorphism of it is inner
  • The natural homomorphism to the automorphism group that sends each element to the conjugation via that element, is an isomorphism
  • Whenever it is embedded as a normal subgroup inside a bigger group, it is actually a direct factor inside that bigger group
