statement proposition
Stabilisers of points in the same orbit are conjugate
Statement
Let a group act on a set , let , and let . Then the stabiliser of is .
Remarks
An element fixes if and only if fixes . So the stabilisers of the points of one orbit are conjugate subgroups. In particular, they all have the same order.
Explanations
L1 human
If moves to , then the elements that fix are the elements that fix , seen through . To fix , you can move back to , fix , and move to again. So the two stabilisers are conjugate.
