[edit] Symbol-free definition

The permutation IAPS is an IAPS of groups where the Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n^{th}

member is the symmetric group Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_n

, and where the block concatenation map Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_m

× Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_n
→ S_{m+n} is defined as the permutation that permutes the first Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): m
symbols according to the left argument and the next Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n
symbols according to the second argument.

[edit] Definition with symbols

The permutation IAPS is an IAPS of groups where the Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n^{th}

member is Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_n
and the block concatenation map Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): \\Phi_{m,n}: S_m
× Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_nFailed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_{m+n}
is defined as follows: (fillin)

[edit] Property theory

[edit] Simplicity

For Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n

Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory):  3

, the group Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_n

is not a simple group. Thus, the permutation IAPS is not eventually simple. In fact, only one member, namely Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_2

, is simple.

For Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n

Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): 5
the only proper nontrivial normal subgroup of Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_n
is Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): A_n

, the alternating group on Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n

elements or the group of even permutations. Hence, the only strongly proper nontrivial normal sub-IAPS of Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_n
is the even permutation IAPS, that is, the IAPS that associates to each Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n
the group Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): A_n

.

Thus, the permutation IAPS is not p-simple. However, since the even permutation IAPS is not a saturated sub-IAPS, the permutation IAPS is i-simple.

[edit] Completeness

For Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): n

Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): 6

, the group Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): S_n

is a complete group, that is, it is centerless and every automorphism of it is inner.
