give an example of a nontrivial homomorphism or explain why none exists. φ:S3 → S4
Note that by definition, the trivial homomorphism is the map for all Each permutation of the symmetric group on the set can be identified with the permutation of the symmetric group on the set by putting It follows that for the map we have that , and hence the map is a nontrivial homomorphism.
