| Nilpotency class: | $2$ |
| Derived length: | $2$ |
The subgroup is the Fitting subgroup (hence characteristic, normal, nilpotent, solvable, supersolvable, and monomial), a semidirect factor, nonabelian, a $p$-group (hence elementary and hyperelementary), and metabelian.
Ambient group ($G$) information
| Description: | $\GL(2,3):D_4$ |
| Order: | \(384\)\(\medspace = 2^{7} \cdot 3 \) |
| Exponent: | \(24\)\(\medspace = 2^{3} \cdot 3 \) |
| Derived length: | $4$ |
The ambient group is nonabelian and solvable.
Quotient group ($Q$) structure
| Description: | $S_3$ |
| Order: | \(6\)\(\medspace = 2 \cdot 3 \) |
| Exponent: | \(6\)\(\medspace = 2 \cdot 3 \) |
| Automorphism Group: | $S_3$, of order \(6\)\(\medspace = 2 \cdot 3 \) |
| Outer Automorphisms: | $C_1$, of order $1$ |
| Nilpotency class: | $-1$ |
| Derived length: | $2$ |
The quotient is nonabelian, a Z-group (hence solvable, supersolvable, monomial, metacyclic, metabelian, and an A-group), hyperelementary for $p = 2$, and rational.
Automorphism information
Since the subgroup $H$ is characteristic, the automorphism group $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$ of the ambient group acts on $H$, yielding a homomorphism $\operatorname{res} : \operatorname{Aut}(G) \to \operatorname{Aut}(H)$. The image of $\operatorname{res}$ on the inner automorphism group $\operatorname{Inn}(G)$ is the Weyl group $W = G / Z_G(H)$.
| $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$ | $C_2^6\times S_4$, of order \(1536\)\(\medspace = 2^{9} \cdot 3 \) |
| $\operatorname{Aut}(H)$ | $C_2^6:S_4$, of order \(1536\)\(\medspace = 2^{9} \cdot 3 \) |
| $\operatorname{res}(\operatorname{Aut}(G))$ | $C_2^4\times S_4$, of order \(384\)\(\medspace = 2^{7} \cdot 3 \) |
| $\card{\operatorname{ker}(\operatorname{res})}$ | \(4\)\(\medspace = 2^{2} \) |
| $W$ | $C_2^2\times S_4$, of order \(96\)\(\medspace = 2^{5} \cdot 3 \) |
