Homework Statement


What is the stabilizer of the coset aH for the operation of G on G/H



The Attempt at a Solution



Its hard for me to do this because i don't really understand the problem. i know that the stabalizer of an ELEMENT s in some group is the subgroup Gs = {g element of G|gs=s}

so basically its all elements of G that act as the identity. but i don't know how to apply this to quotient groups.
