Definition

Symbol-free definition

A subgroup of a group is said to be conjugate-large if any subgroup all of whose conjugates intersect it trivially must be the trivial subgroup.

Definition with symbols

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be conjugate-large if whenever $K$ is a subgroup such that $K^{g}\cap H$ is trivial for every $g\in G$ , $K$ must itself be trivial.

Transitivity

This subgroup property is transitive: a subgroup with this property in a subgroup with this property, also has this property in the whole group.

We need to show that if $H\leq K\leq G$ with each conjugate-large in the next, $H$ is conjugate-large in $G$ .

The proof of this is as follows: let $M\leq G$ such that $M^{g}\cap K$ is trivial. We first show that $M\cap K$ is trivial by observing that $H$ is conjugate-large in $K$ . We then show that $M$ is trivial using the fact that $K$ is conjugate-large in $G$ .
