Group theory MOC

Core of a subgroup

Let 𝐺 be a group, 𝐻 𝐺 be a subgroup, and 𝑆 𝐺 be a subset. The core of 𝐻 under 𝑆 is the intersection of the conjugates of 𝐻 under 𝑆, #m/def/group i.e.

Core𝑆𝐻=𝑠𝑆𝑠𝐻𝑠1

In particular, if 𝑆 =𝐺 one gets the normal interior 𝐻 of 𝐻, the maximal normal subgroup 𝐻 𝐺 contained within 𝐻.
