Definition

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is termed upward-closed characteristic if, for every subgroup $K$ of $G$ containing $H$, $K$ is also a characteristic subgroup of $G$.

Formalisms

In terms of the upward-closure operator

This property is obtained by applying the upward-closure operator to the property: characteristic subgroup
