Verbal subgroups are the only fully characteristic subgroups of a free group and therefore represent the generic example of fully characteristic subgroups, (Magnus, Karrass & Solitar 2004, p. 75).

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a contranormal subgroup is a subgroup whose normal closure in the group is the whole group. Clearly, a contranormal subgroup can be normal only if it is the whole group. Some facts: Every subgroup of a finite group is a contranormal subgroup of a subnormal subgroup. In gene...

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a group is said to be absolutely simple if it has no proper nontrivial serial subgroups. That is, G {\displaystyle G} is an absolutely simple group if the only serial subgroups of G {\displaystyle G} are { e } {\displaystyle \{e\}} (the trivial subgroup), and G {\displaysty...

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a group is said to be characteristically simple if it has no proper nontrivial characteristic subgroups. Characteristically simple groups are sometimes also termed elementary groups. Characteristically simple is a weaker condition than being a simple group, as simple groups...

A finite group is characteristically simple if and only if it is the direct product of isomorphic simple groups. In particular, a finite solvable group is characteristically simple if and only if it is an elementary abelian group. This does not hold in general for infinite groups; for example, the rational numbers form...

A minimal normal subgroup of a group G is a nontrivial normal subgroup N of G such that the only proper subgroup of N that is normal in G is the trivial subgroup. Every minimal normal subgroup of a group is characteristically simple. This follows from the fact that a characteristic subgroup of a normal subgroup is norm...

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a group is said to be strictly simple if it has no proper nontrivial ascendant subgroups. That is, G {\displaystyle G} is a strictly simple group if the only ascendant subgroups of G {\displaystyle G} are { e } {\displaystyle \{e\}} (the trivial subgroup), and G {\displayst...
