# Is there a general approach for finding the Normalizer of a subgroup? [closed]

I am currently facing a problem where I need to find the Normalizer of a subgroup. I have found examples where people compute the normalizer for specific subgroups, but no general approach.

Does anyone know of such an approach or of a source which explains it?

• since these proofs often involve the specific structure if the group (i.e. free generators, relations...), it could be helpful to know which examples you are facing – Enkidu Dec 7 '18 at 11:12
• Of course there are algorithms for computing normalizers in subgroups of $S_n$ for example, but you would need to ask much more specific questions if you were interested in the details. – Derek Holt Dec 7 '18 at 11:38
