An alternating group is the group of even permutations of a finite set.
Question : Is there any theorem like $G$ is an alternating group iff something..
I tried on internet, but did not get anything.

Also: For $n>3$, except $n=6$, the automorphism group of $A_n$ is the symmetric group $S_n$ with inner automorphism group $A_n$. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating_group

I can't guess what you have in mind, so here's "something":
A group $G$ such that $|G|>4$ is isomorphic to an alternating group if and only if $G$ is a proper normal subgroup of some symmetric group.

I think you could make that $|G|>4$.
