Statement
Suppose is a permutably complemented subgroup of : in other words, there exists a subgroup such that is trivial and . Then, if , is a permutably complemented subgroup of . In fact, the subgroup is a permutable complement to in .
Facts used
- Modular property of groups: This states that if , and , we have:
.
Proof
Given: , and is trivial. .
To prove: is trivial and .
Proof: Since is trivial, is also trivial. As for the second part, observe that by fact (1):
as required.
