Definition
QUICK PHRASES: normal closure is characteristic, join of all conjugates is characteristic
A subgroup of a group is termed closure-characteristic, or a subgroup whose normal closure is characteristic, if its normal closure in the whole group is a characteristic subgroup. In symbols, a subgroup of a group is termed closure-characteristic if the normal closure of in is characteristic in .
