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

I was trying the study a new subject in groups (from a book I have). I came acorss with the following question:



Consider:



$X=S_4$



$Y={e,(12)(34),(13)(24),(14)(23)}$



How can I prove that:



$${gY:gin X}={Yg:gin X}$$

To prove $GY subset YG$, you need to prove that for all $g_1 in G$ and $y_1 in Y$, there exists $y_2 in G$ and $y_2 in Y$ such that $g_1 y_1 = y_2 g_2$, which is equivalent to saying such that $g_1 y_1 g_2^{-1} in Y$. Proving the other inclusion is similar.



We can actually prove a stronger property : for all $g in G$ and $y in Y$, we have $gyg^{-1} in Y$.



Indeed, if $y=e$ we have $gyg^{-1}=ein Y$. Otherwise, $y$ is of the form $y=(a , b) (c , d)$ (with $a, b, c, d$ numbers from $1$ to $4$ (in some order). We compute that



$$g y g^{-1} = (g(a) , g(b)) (g(c) , g(d))$$



And we check that this is still in $Y$ (note that $Y$ contains all permutations of the form $(a , b) (c , d)$, because for example $(12)(34)=(21)(34)=(21)(43)=(34)(12)=(43)(12)=ldots$).
