Calling Sequence

Description

Examples

Calling Sequence

AgemoPGroup( G )

AgemoPGroup( n, G )

OmegaPGroup( G )

OmegaPGroup( n, G )

Parameters

G

-

: PermutationGroup; a permutation p-group, for a prime number p

n

-

: nonnegint; (optional) a non-negative integer, default n=1

Description

• 

If n is a non-negative integer, and G is a finite p-group, then the subgroup ℧n⁡G is defined to be the subgroup of G generated by elements of G of the form gpn, as g ranges over all elements of G.

• 

The AgemoPGroup( n, G ) command computes the subgroup ℧n⁡G of G, where G is a permutation p-group, for some prime p.

• 

The first argument n is optional and is equal to 1 by default. That is, the command AgemoPGroup( G ) is equivalent to AgemoPGroup( 1, G ).

• 

For a p-group G, and a non-negative integer n, the subgroup Ωn⁡G is defined to be the subgroup generated by the elements g such that gpn = 1, for g∈G. That is, the subgroup generated by those members of G whose order divides pn.

• 

The OmegaPGroup( n, G ) command computes Ωn⁡G for a permutation group G of prime power order.

• 

When called with two arguments, n and G, the indicated subgroup Ωn⁡G is returned. When called with just one argument G, the subgroup Ω1⁡G is returned.

While it is immediate from the definition that Ωn⁡G≤Ωn+1⁡G, for all n and any finite p-group G, equality may occur.
