Let $G=langle Xmid Rrangle$ and $H=langle Xmid Srangle$. If $Rsubseteq S$, the $H$ is isomorphic to a...

Assume that a group $G$ has a presentation $langle X mid R rangle$ and a group $H$ has a presentation $langle X mid S rangle$. If $R subseteq S$, the $H$ is isomorphic to a quotient of $G$.



In fact, if $F_X$ is the free group and $varphi: F_X rightarrow G$ and $psi:F_X rightarrow H$ are the homomorphism, then $ker varphi = R^{F_X} leq S^{F_X} = ker psi$. So, $H cong F_X/kerpsi$ is isomorphic to a quotient of $F_X/kervarphi cong G$.

    There might be a typo in your group presentation of $G$. If not, then $G$ isn't generated by a single element. To see this note that it has torsion (since $(aba)^4 = 1$) and that $a$ is of infinte order in $G$.

    Okay. What are your thoughts? Do you see that $aba = bab$ in $H/ < (aba)^4 >$?

    I thought of showing that $ker varphi / ker psi cong <(aba)^4>$ (Third isomorphism theorem), so that the quotient of the normal closures is $<(aba)^4>$

    Also mid ($mid$) gives you better spacing as a separator than the pipe character | does.
