For p>2p>2 the normalizer of a non-split Cartan subgroup of GL2(Fp)\GL_2(\F_p) is a maximal subgroup of GL2(Fp)\GL_2(\F_p) that contains a non-split Cartan subgroup with index 2, and it is the normalizer in GL2(Fp)\GL_2(\F_p) of the non-split Cartan subgroup it contains. For p=2p=2 the normalizer of a non-split Cartan subgroup is defined to be all of GL2(F2)\GL_2(\F_2), which contains its (already normal) non-split Cartan subgroup with index 2.

For p>2p>2 the label Nn identifies the normalizer of the nonsplit Cartan subgroup generated by the non-split Cartan subgroup Cn and the matrix (1001), \begin{pmatrix}1&0\\0&-1\end{pmatrix}, and every normalizer of a non-split Cartan subgroup is conjugate to the group Nn.

The label Nn.a.b denotes the proper subgroup of the normalizer of the nonsplit Cartan subgroup Nn generated by the matrices (aεbba),(1001). \begin{pmatrix}a&\varepsilon b\\b&a\end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix}1&0\\0&-1\end{pmatrix}. where aa and bb are minimally chosen positive integers and ε\varepsilon is the least positive integer generating (Z/pZ)×Fp×(\Z/p\Z)^\times\simeq \F_p^\times, as defined in [arXiv:1504.07618, 10.1017/fms.2015.33, MR:3482279].
