Do a subgroup and quotient determine the original group?

I am wondering whether there is a counterexample which shows that subgroups and quotients don't determine the group.



More precisely, suppose there are two groups $G_1, G_2$ such that all of their proper non-trivial normal subgroups are 1-1 corresponding and if $1<H_1 < G_1, 1<H_2 < G_2$ are those proper normal subgroups that they correspond, then $H_1 simeq H_2$, and $G_1 / H_1 simeq G_2/H_2$. (Here $simeq$ means isomorphic.)



Then $G_1 simeq G_2$?



I guess it might be not true in general, but I don't know any nontrivial counterexample except the pair $(mathbbZ_p, mathbbZ_q)$.



Any comments on this will be highly appreciated!

  • Not to be annoying, but if $G_1/H_1 simeq G_2/H_2$ for any proper $H_1, H_2$, then you can take $H_1 = H_2 = 0$ and conclude, so you should exclude trivial subgroups from the hypothesis.

    Since this seems to have been interpreted differently in the two answer, could you clarify if this is what you intended: Let $A$ and $B$ be the sets of proper non-trivial subgroups of the groups and assume we have a bijective map $f: Ato B$ such that we for all $Hin A$ have $Hcong f(H)$ and $G_1/Hcong G_2/f(H)$ whenever $H$ is normal?

  • Following Tobias, what if the subgroups are not normal? Otherwise, why not simply take two simple groups?

    The question seems clear enough to me, but you need to specify that normal subgroups correspond to normal subgroup in the correspondence between subgroups, since otherwise you cannot form quotient groups.

There is a counterexample of order $605 = 11^2 times 5$ with the structure $11^2:5$. Let
$$G = langle x,y,z mid x^11=y^11=z^5=1, xy=yx, x^z=x^4, y^z=y^5 rangle,$$
$$H = langle x,y,z mid x^11=y^11=z^5=1, xy=yx, x^z=x^4, y^z=y^3 rangle.$$
These are $mathttSmallGroup(605,5)$ and $mathttSmallGroup(606,6)$ in the small groups database.



They both have $121$ conjugate subgroups of order $5$, two normal subgroups of order $11$ with nonabelian quotients of order $55$, $10$ non-normal subgroups of order $11$, $22$ non-normal subgroups of order $55$, and one normal subgroup of order $121$.

There are two (1) groups of order $4$. Each has a normal subgroup of order $2$ so the quotient groups are also order $2$. There is only one (1) group of order $2$ so the subgroups are isomorphic and the quotient groups are isomorphic.



(1) Up to isomorphism.

  • Not sure what that would be. The two groups of order $4$ have different numbers of subgroups, so they don't correspond.

There are two (1) groups of order $4$. Each has a normal subgroup of order $2$ so the quotient groups are also order $2$. There is only one (1) group of order $2$ so the subgroups are isomorphic and the quotient groups are isomorphic.



(1) Up to isomorphism.

  • The OP asked for the proper subgroups to correspond one-to-one

    @TobiasKildetoft Is there a technical meaning of "correspond" here that I am missing?

  • Not sure what that would be. The two groups of order $4$ have different numbers of subgroups, so they don't correspond.

  • @TobiasKildetoft I see what you mean now. So, it is a more interesting question than it first seemed.
