permutable subgroup

(Definition)
|
|
|
Let $G$ be a group. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is said to be permutable if it permutes with all subgroups of $G$ , that is, $KH=HK$ for all $K\leq G$ . We sometimes write $H\per G$ to indicate that $H$ is a permutable subgroup of $G$ .
Permutable subgroups were introduced by Øystein Ore, who called them quasinormal subgroups.
Normal subgroups are clearly permutable.
Permutable subgroups are ascendant. This is a result of Stonehewer[1], who also showed that in a finitely generated group, all permutable subgroups are subnormal.
