Mathlib.GroupTheory.Perm.Subgroup

Lemmas about subgroups within the permutations (self-equivalences) of a type α #

This file provides extra lemmas about some Subgroups that exist within Equiv.Perm α. GroupTheory.Subgroup depends on GroupTheory.Perm.Basic, so these need to be in a separate file.

It also provides decidable instances on membership in these subgroups, since MonoidHom.decidableMemRange cannot be inferred without the help of a lambda. The presence of these instances induces a Fintype instance on the QuotientGroup.Quotient of these subgroups.

Cayley's theorem: Every group G is isomorphic to a subgroup of the symmetric group acting on G. Note that we generalize this to an arbitrary "faithful" group action by G. Setting H = G recovers the usual statement of Cayley's theorem via RightCancelMonoid.faithfulSMul
