Everything about Subgroup totally explained

In group theory, given a group G under a binary operation *, we say that some subset H of G is a subgroup of G if H also forms a group under the operation *. More precisely, H is a subgroup of G if the restriction of * to H is a group operation on H. This is usually represented notationally by HG, read as "H is a subgroup of G".
   A proper subgroup of a group G is a subgroup H which is a proper subset of G (for example HG). The trivial subgroup of any group is the subgroup . They are also the equivalence classes for a suitable equivalence relation and their number is equal to [G: H].
   If aH = Ha for every a in G, then H is said to be a normal subgroup. Every subgroup of index 2 is normal: the left cosets, and also the right cosets, are simply the subgroup and its complement.
