How to show that $Kleq S_4$ is a normal subgroup?












1












$begingroup$


Let $K={(1),(1,2),(3,4),(2,4),(1,4),(2,3)}$ is a subgrope of $S_4$, we want to show that it is a normal subgroup.



I know that i have to examine the condition of normality in $S_4$ i.e. for all $gin S_4, g^{-1}Kg=K$. I think this takes times or I am missing something near. Please give me the right hint. Thank you.



Edit: $K = {(1),(12)(34),(13)(24),(14)(23)}.$

    It is not a subgroup! $(1,2)(2,4)=(1,2,4)notin K$.

    What is your text book? Most probably it is a typo or you simply miscopied... It could probably be $,{(1), (12)(34), (13)(24), (14)(23)}triangleleft S_4,$

This isn't going to work on two fronts:



First your subset $K$ is not a subgroup: $(1 2)(2 3) = (1 2 3)$ so $K$ is not closed under the group operation.



Second your subset $K$ is not closed under conjugation: $(2 3)^{-1}(1 2)(2 3) = (1 3)$.



Maybe you meant the subgroup generated by $K$? But $K$ generates all of $S_4$ so in that case it is trivially normal.

    Maybe your course instructor intended $K = {(1),(12)(34),(13)(24),(14)(23)}.$ That is, $K$ consists of the identity, together with all products of two disjoint $2$-cycles. This is a subgroup. It is also normal because the identity is conjugate only to the identity, and because the set of products of two disjoint $2$-cycles is closed under conjugacy, so that $sigma Ksigma^{-1} = K$ for all $sigma in S_{4}.$
