Definition

Let [ilmath](G,\times)[/ilmath] be a group and [ilmath]H[/ilmath] a subgroup of [ilmath]G[/ilmath], we say [ilmath]H[/ilmath] is a normal subgroup[1] of [ilmath]G[/ilmath] if:

  • [math]\forall x\in G[xH=Hx][/math] where the [ilmath]xH[/ilmath] and [ilmath]Hx[/ilmath] are left and right cosets
