Question:




Let $G$ be a group, $S leq G$, and define
$$c(S) := ain G : a in gSg^-1 textrmfor all gin G$$
Show that $c(S)$ is a normal subgroup of $G$ contained in $S$





Attempt:



I have been able to show that $c(S)$ is a subgroup of $G$:



Let $a$, $b$ $in c(S)$. Then we have that
$$
ain gSg^-1 implies a = gs_1g^-1 textrmfor some s_1in S \
bin gSg^-1 implies b = gs_2g^-1 textrmfor some s_2in S
$$



Proceeding with the subgroup test:
beginalign
ab^-1 &= left(g s_1 g^-1right)left(g s_2 g^-1right)^-1 \
&= g s_1 g^-1 g s_2^-1 g^-1 \
&= gs_1s_2^-1g^-1 \
&in gSg^-1
endalign



So $c(S)leq G$.



I'm struggling in particular with showing that $c(S)$ is normal in $G$. I have so far attempted to show that $c(S)$ is closed under conjugation by elements from $G$:



Let $bin c(S)$. If $gbg^-1in c(S)$ for all $gin G$, then $c(S)triangleleft G$:



beginalign
bin c(S) &implies b = gsg^-1 textrmfor some sin Stextrm, for all gin G. \
&implies gbg^-1 = ggsg^-1g^-1 = (gg)s(gg)^-1
endalign



I'm not sure how to proceed from this point. I am also confused at the definition of $c(S)$ itself, I definitely do not have any intuition as to what the object $c(S)$ actually is.



Edit (In response to Chrystomath's comment):



Let $bin c(S)$. Then $b = lhl^-1$ for fixed $lin G$, $hin S$.
Let $k$ be any element of $G$:
beginaligned
kbk^-1 &= k(lhl^-1)k^-1 \
&= klhl^-1k^-1 \
&= (kl)h(kl)^-1 \
&in gSg^-1
endaligned



Writing $g=klin G$.




My questions are:



  • Was I correct in the way I showed that $c(S)leq G$?

  • How can I interpret the definition of $c(S)$?

  • How do I show that $c(S)$ is normal in $G$?

Thank you

    $begingroup$
    When you state "$b=gsg^-1$ for some $s$ for all $g$", you have to be careful. It is not the same $s$ for all $g$ of course. For each $g$ there is an $s$ with that property. Secondly you have to prove $gbg^-1in c(S)$ for all $g$, so don't use the same letter $g$ as in $b=gsg^-1$. It can be any other element, so call it $h$ say.

You have done the subgroup test for $c(S)$.
Consider any element in $g^-1 c(S) g$, wlog let it be $h =g^-1 g' s g'^-1 g$, where $s in S$, according to the definition of $c(S)$.
But it follows by definition that $h in c(S)$, and $c(S) lhd G$.
However, it would seem that $S subset c(S)$, not the other way.
Have I missed something?
