Solutions of some problems in group theory can relatively easy be transferred to a sub- or supergroup if the index is small.
Let G be a permutation group on the set {1,...,n}.
-So one might try to find a series of subgroups G = H_0,...,H_k = Sₙ of the symmetric group S_nsuch that H_{i-1} is a subgroup of H_i for every i and transfer the solution of a problem for the symmetric group step by step to G.

Sometimes it is not possible to find such a series with small indices between consecutive subgroups.
This is where subgroup ladders may make sense:
