Transitively normal subgroup

Transitively normal subgroup

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a subgroup of a group is said to be transitively normal in the group if every normal subgroup of the subgroup is also normal in the whole group. In symbols, H is a transitively normal subgroup of G if for every K normal in H, we have that K is normal in G.

An alternate way to characterize these subgroups is: every "normal subgroup preserving automorphism" of the whole group must restrict to a "normal subgroup preserving automorphism" of the subgroup.

Here are some facts about transitively normal subgroups:

*Every normal subgroup of a transitively normal subgroup is normal.
*Every direct factor, or more generally, every central factor is transitively normal. Thus, every
central subgroup is transitively normal.
*A transitively normal subgroup of a transitively normal subgroup is transitively normal.
*A transitively normal subgroup is normal.
