The hookrightarrow and its meaning
$begingroup$
Very weirdly I found a $hookrightarrow $ in my Algebra book just like that. Could someone please just tell me what it means? Sorry for this maybe stupid question in advance but very much appreciate your help!

Most probably, it denotes an injective morphism.

It's used between groups at this point... pretty weird it wasn't explained before using it.

$Ahookrightarrow B$ primarily means the usual inclusion if $Asubseteq B$, i.e. the restriction of the identity function. More generally, it can also denote arbitrary embedding, which, in algebraic context, is usually the same as 'injective homomorphism'.

Resolved in comments, so I'll make this community wiki. $F hookrightarrow G$ denotes the inclusion of $F$ in $G$, with $hookrightarrow$ denoting a monomorphism.

In an algebraic setting, $hookrightarrow$ denotes a monic map and $twoheadrightarrow$ denotes an epic map.
