Let G be a group, and H and K be two subgroups of G. One says that the two elements g1G and g2G belong to the same double coset of G relative to H and K if there exist elements hiH and kjK such that

g2 = hig1kj.

The complex Hg1K is called a double coset.

The partition of G into double cosets relative to H and K is a classification, i.e. each giG belongs to exactly one double coset. It is also a generalization of the coset decomposition, because the double coset Hg1K contains complete left cosets of K and complete right cosets of H.
