This article defines a subgroup property: a property that can be evaluated to true/false given a group and a subgroup thereof, invariant under subgroup equivalence. View a complete list of subgroup properties[SHOW MORE]

This page describes a subgroup property obtained as a conjunction (AND) of two (or more) more fundamental subgroup properties: normal subgroup and CEP-subgroup

CAUTIONARY NOTE: There is a paper where the term transitively normal is used for what we call intermediately subnormal-to-normal subgroup

Examples

Extreme examples

  • Every group is transitively normal as a subgroup of itself.
  • The trivial subgroup is transitively normal in any group.
