This article gives the statement and possibly, proof, of an implication relation between two subgroup properties. That is, it states that every subgroup satisfying the first subgroup property (i.e., semi-strongly potentially characteristic subgroup) must also satisfy the second subgroup property (i.e., normal-extensible automorphism-invariant subgroup)

Statement

Verbal statement

Any semi-strongly potentially characteristic subgroup of a group is a normal-extensible automorphism-invariant subgroup.

Definitions used

Semi-strongly potentially characteristic subgroup

Further information: Semi-strongly potentially characteristic subgroup

A subgroup H≤G is semi-strongly potentially characteristic if there exists a group K containing G as a normal subgroup such that H is a characteristic subgroup of K.

Normal-extensible automorphism-invariant subgroup

Further information: Normal-extensible automorphism-invariant subgroup

An automorphism σ of a group G is termed a normal-extensible automorphism if, whenever K is a group containing G as a normal subgroup, there exists an automorphism σ′ of K whose restriction to G equals σ. A normal-extensible automorphism-invariant subgroup is a subgroup invariant under all normal-extensible automorphisms.

Intermediate properties

Proof

Given: H≤G. There exists a group K such that G is normal in K and H is characteristic in K. σ is a normal-extensible automorphism of G.

To prove: σ(H)=H.

Proof: Since σ is normal-extensible, there exists σ′∈Aut(K) such that the restriction of σ′ to G equals σ. Since H is characteristic in K, σ′(H)=H, and hence, σ(H)=H.
