Is there a purely group-theoretic reformulation of an equivalence of subgroups?

There is an equivalence relation between inclusion of finite groups coming from the world of subfactors: Definition: $(H_{1} \subset G_{1}) \sim(H_{2} \subset G_{2})$ if $(R^{G_{1}} \subset R^{H_{1}}...

Let's first define what we mean by depth of a subgroup. Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ a subgroup. Let $(V_i)_{i \in I}$ and $(W_j)_{j \in J}$ be the irreducible complex representations of $G$ ...

Is there a subgroup of dual depth 3?

This post is motivated by an exchange with Zhengwei Liu. It is more than the dual version of this post, because we consider any subgroup (instead of just maximal), and even more at the end... Let's ...

An upper bound for the maximal subgroups at fixed index?

Let us call a subgroup an injective homomorphism between groups. I warn the reader that a subgroup designates here an inclusion $(H \subset G)$, not $H$ alone. A subgroup $H \subset G$ is ...
