<h3>39 <span class="Heading">Groups</span></h3>

<p>This chapter explains how to create groups and defines operations for groups, that is operations whose definition does not depend on the representation used. However methods for these operations in most cases will make use of the representation.</p>

<p>If not otherwise specified, in all examples in this chapter the group <code class="code">g</code> will be the symmetric group <span class="SimpleMath">S_4</span> acting on the letters <span class="SimpleMath">{ 1, ..., 4 }</span>.</p>

<p><a id="X822370B47DEA37B1" name="X822370B47DEA37B1"></a></p>

<h4>39.1 <span class="Heading">Group Elements</span></h4>

<p>Groups in <strong class="pkg">GAP</strong> are written multiplicatively. The elements from which a group can be generated must permit multiplication and multiplicative inversion (see <a href="chap31.html#X7B97A0307EA161E5"><span class="RefLink">31.14</span></a>).</p>


<div class="example"><pre>
<span class="GAPprompt">gap></span> <span class="GAPinput">a:=(1,2,3);;b:=(2,3,4);;</span>
<span class="GAPprompt">gap></span> <span class="GAPinput">One(a);</span>

<span class="GAPprompt">gap></span> <span class="GAPinput">Inverse(b);</span>

<span class="GAPprompt">gap></span> <span class="GAPinput">Order(a*b);</span>

<span class="GAPprompt">gap></span> <span class="GAPinput">Order( [ [ 1, 1 ], [ 0, 1 ] ] );</span>
infinity
</pre></div>

<p>The next example may run into an infinite loop because the given matrix in fact has infinite order.</p>


<div class="example"><pre>
<span class="GAPprompt">gap></span> <span class="GAPinput">Order( [ [ 1, 1 ], [ 0, 1 ] ] * Indeterminate( Rationals ) );</span>
#I  Order: warning, order of <mat> might be infinite
</pre></div>

<p>Since groups are domains, the recommended command to compute the order of a group is <code class="func">Size</code> (<a href="chap30.html#X858ADA3B7A684421"><span class="RefLink">30.4-6</span></a>). For convenience, group orders can also be computed with <code class="func">Order</code> (<a href="chap31.html#X84F59A2687C62763"><span class="RefLink">31.10-10</span></a>).</p>

<p>The operation <code class="func">Comm</code> (<a href="chap31.html#X80761843831B468E"><span class="RefLink">31.12-3</span></a>) can be used to compute the commutator of two elements, the operation <code class="func">LeftQuotient</code> (<a href="chap31.html#X7A37082878DB3930"><span class="RefLink">31.12-2</span></a>) computes the product <span class="SimpleMath">x^{-1} y</span>.</p>

<h4>39.2 <span class="Heading">Creating Groups</span></h4>

<p>When groups are created from generators, this means that the generators must be elements that can be multiplied and inverted (see also <a href="chap31.html#X82039A218274826F"><span class="RefLink">31.3</span></a>). For creating a free group on a set of symbols, see <code class="func">FreeGroup</code> (<a href="chap37.html#X8215999E835290F0"><span class="RefLink">37.2-1</span></a>).</p>
