I have two permutation groups $G_1=\langle g_1,g_2\rangle$ and $G_2=\langle h_1,h_2\rangle$ acting on $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ respectively. I want to prove that $G_1 \leq G_2$. What are more nontrivial methods to do so?
What are various approaches of proving that a permutation group is a subgroup of another?

0Technically the permutation group $G_1$ cannot be a subgroup of the permutation group $G_2$ unless $\Gamma_1=\Gamma_2$. If $\Gamma_1\subseteq\Gamma_2$ then $G_1$ can be isomorphic to a subgroup of $G_2$. – 2012-10-29
