Complete Group
In mathematics, a group G is said to be complete if every automorphism of G is inner, and the group is a centerless group; that is, it has a trivial outer automorphism group and trivial center. Equivalently, a group is complete if the conjugation map (sending an element g to conjugation by g) is an isomorphism: 1-to-1 corresponds to centerless, onto corresponds to no outer automorphisms.

“Better wear out shoes than sheets.”
—18th-century Scottish proverb, collected in J. Kelly, Complete Collection of Scottish Proverbs (1721)
“He hung out of the window a long while looking up and down the street. The world’s second metropolis. In the brick houses and the dingy lamplight and the voices of a group of boys kidding and quarreling on the steps of a house opposite, in the regular firm tread of a policeman, he felt a marching like soldiers, like a sidewheeler going up the Hudson under the Palisades, like an election parade, through long streets towards something tall white full of colonnades and stately. Metropolis.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
