GALOIS GROUPS FOR PERMUTATIONS ON SETS

  • Published : 2005.03.01

Abstract

In this paper, we consider groups of permutations S on a set A acting on subsets X of A. In particular, we show that if $X_2{\subseteq}X_1{\subseteq}A$ and Y is an S-normal extension of $X_2 in X_1$, then the Galois group $G_{S}(X_1/Y){\;}of{\;}X_1{\;}over{\;}X_2$ relative to S is an S-closed subgroup of $G_{S}(X_1/X_2)$ in the setting of a Galois theory (correspondence) for this situation.
