Norm (group)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, in the field of group theory, the norm of a group is the intersection of the normalizers of all its subgroups. This is also termed the Baer norm.
The following facts are clearly true for the Baer norm:
- It is a characteristic subgroup.
- It contains the center of the group.
- It is contained inside the second term of the upper central series.
