Idea

A normal subgroup is a fixed point of the conjugation action on the (large) set of all subgroups

Definition

normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group :
  {l1 : Level} (l2 : Level) (G : Concrete-Group l1)  UU (l1  lsuc l2)
normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group l2 G =
  (u : classifying-type-Concrete-Group G) 
  subgroup-action-Concrete-Group l2 G u

module _
  {l1 l2 : Level} (G : Concrete-Group l1)
  (H : normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group l2 G)
  where

  subgroup-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group : subgroup-Concrete-Group l2 G
  subgroup-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group = H (shape-Concrete-Group G)

  action-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group : action-Concrete-Group l2 G
  action-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group =
    action-subgroup-Concrete-Group G subgroup-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group

  transitive-action-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group :
    transitive-action-Concrete-Group l2 G
  transitive-action-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group =
    transitive-action-subgroup-Concrete-Group G
      ( subgroup-normal-subgroup-Concrete-Group)
