Prove the following permutation mapping is a homomorphism.

$begingroup$


Prove that $varphi: S_n to S_{n+1 }$, where for $sigmain S_{n}$: begin{pmatrix} 1 & 2 & dots & n \ 1sigma & 2sigma & dots & nsigma\ end{pmatrix}



$varphi(sigma)in S_{n+1}= begin{pmatrix} 1 & 2 & dots & n & n+1 \ 1sigma & 2sigma & dots & nsigma & (n+1)sigma \ end{pmatrix} $
is a homomorphism.



Wondering if anyone can explain how to prove this. Thanks.





From the comments:




I literally have no idea where to start, hence why I haven't given details of where ive got stuck as I have no idea what methods I should use to even start it. I have done a few questions similar using matrices, trigonometric functions and other functions and found them fine. I have been using the standard definition for homomorphism that is that φ(ab)=φ(a)φ(b). However, with this question this did not seem to get me very far at all and I was wondering if there was something more clever or a silly detail I was overlooking.

    You prove it by showing that it has the properties of a homomorphism. How is a group homomorphism defined in your textbook/notes?

    The difficulty we have is that for anyone who has understood what is going on here the answer is essentially trivial, so it is hard to know what is tripping you up. How familiar are you with the symmetric groups? And why is it difficult to apply the definition you have of a homomorphism?
