Definition
A subgroup of a group is termed a monadic second-order characteristic subgroup if there is no other subgroup of such that the monadic second-order theories of the group-subgroup pairs and coincide. In other words, can be distinguished from any other subgroup of using monadic second-order logic in the pure theory of the group .
