Definition
Symbol-free definition
A subgroup of a group is termed characteristic-potentially characteristic if there is an embedding of the bigger group in some group such that, in that embedding both the group and the subgroup become characteristic.
Definition with symbols
A subgroup of a group
is termed characteristic-potentially characteristic in
if there exists a group

Formalisms
BEWARE! This section of the article uses terminology local to the wiki, possibly without giving a full explanation of the terminology used (though efforts have been made to clarify terminology as much as possible within the particular context)
In terms of the upper-hook operator
Given two subgroup properties and
, the upper-hook operator of
and
is defined as the following property
: a subgroup
of a group
has property
if there exists a group
containing
such that
has property
in
and
has property
in
.
The property of being strongly potentially characteristic is thus obtained by applying the upper-hook operator to the property characteristic subgroup with itself.

- Normal subgroup: For proof of the implication, refer Characteristic-potentially characteristic implies normal and for proof of its strictness (i.e. the reverse implication being false) refer Normal not implies characteristic-potentially characteristic.
- Potentially relatively characteristic subgroup: This is a weaker notion, that turns out to be the same as normality. For full proof, refer: Potentially relatively characteristic equals normal
