Definition with symbols

A subhypergroup H of a hypergroup K is said to be normal if H*x=x*H for every point xK.

Analogy

The notion of normality for subhypergroup is analogous to the subgroup property of normality, when defined/viewed as follows:

A subgroup H of a group K is termed normal if Hx=xH for all elements xK.
