upperCentralSeriesStep

Deprecated since 2026-03-25Use Subgroup.upperCentralSeriesStep instead.

{G : Type u_1} → [inst : Group G] → (N : Subgroup G) → [N.Normal] → Subgroup G

Alias of Subgroup.upperCentralSeriesStep. If N is a normal subgroup of G, then the set {x : G | ∀ y : G, x*y*x⁻¹*y⁻¹ ∈ N} is a subgroup of G (because it is the preimage in G of the centre of the quotient group G/N.)
