Definition

Definition with symbols

Suppose H is a subgroup of a group G. We say that H is a direct factor over central subgroup of G if it satisfies the following equivalent conditions:

  1. There exists a subgroup A of H such that A is a central subgroup of G and H/A is a direct factor of the quotient group G/A.
  2. In the quotient map ρ:GG/Z(G), where Z(G) is the center of G, ρ(H) is a direct factor of ρ(G)=G/Z(G).
