Notation for "permutation moves an element"

39 Views Asked by At

Let $P$ be a permutation on a set $S$ and let $s \in S$. What is the notation (if any) to indicate that $P$ moves $s$? What about $P$ fixes $s$?

There's not any widely used special notation for this, but you can just write $P(s)\neq s$ and $P(s)=s$, respectively.
