maximal subgroup
In mathematics, the term maximal subgroup is used to mean slightly different things in different areas of algebra.
In group theory, a maximal subgroup ''H'' of a group ''G'' is a proper subgroup, such that no proper subgroup ''K'' contains ''H'' strictly. In other words ''H'' is a maximal element of the partially ordered set of proper subgroups of ''G''. Maximal subgroups are of interest because of their direct connection with primitive permutation representations of ''G''. They are also much studied for the purposes of finite group theory: see for example Frattini subgroup, the intersection of the maximal subgroups.
In semigroup theory, a maximal subgroup of a semigroup ''S'' is a subgroup (that is, a subsemigroup which forms a group under the semigroup operation) of ''S'' which is not properly contained in another subgroup of ''S''. Notice that, here, there is no requirement that the maximal subgroup be proper, so if ''S'' is in fact a group then its unique maximal subgroup (as a semigroup) is ''S'' itself. Considering subgroups, and in particular maximal subgroups, of semigroups often allows one to apply group-theoretic techniques in semigroup theory. There is a one-to-one correspondence between idempotent elements of a semigroup and maximal subgroups of the semigroup: each idempotent element is the identity element of a unique maximal subgroup.
==Existence of maximal subgroup==
Any proper subgroup of a finite group is contained in some maximal subgroup, since the proper subgroups form a finite partially ordered set under inclusion. There are, however, infinite Abelian groups that contain no maximal subgroups, for example the Prüfer group.
