Permutation group S3/Subgroups and normal subgroup/Example

We consider the permutation group for a set with three elements, that is, consists of all bijective mappings of the set to itself. The trivial group and the whole group are normal subgroups. The subset , where is the element that swops and and fixes , is a subgroup. However, it is not a normal subgroup. To show this, let denote the bijection that fixes and swops and . The inverse of is itself. The conjugation is the mapping that sends to , to , and to . This bijection does not belong to .
