List of Small Groups - Small Groups Library

Small Groups Library

The group theoretical computer algebra system GAP contains the "Small Groups library" which provides access to descriptions of small order groups. The groups are listed up to isomorphism. At present, the library contains the following groups:

  • those of order at most 2000, except for order 1024 (423164062 groups in the library; the ones of order 1024 had to be skipped, as there are an additional 49487365422 nonisomorphic 2-groups of order 1024.);
  • those of cubefree order at most 50000 (395 703 groups);
  • those of squarefree order;
  • those of order for n at most 6 and p prime;
  • those of order for p = 3,5,7,11 (907 489 groups);
  • those of order qn×p where qn divides 28, 36, 55 or 74 and p is an arbitrary prime which differs from q;
  • those whose orders factorise into at most 3 primes.

It contains explicit descriptions of the available groups in computer readable format.

Famous quotes containing the words small, groups and/or library:

    Researchers, with science as their authority, will be able to cut [animals] up, alive, into small pieces, drop them from a great height to see if they are shattered by the fall, or deprive them of sleep for sixteen days and nights continuously for the purposes of an iniquitous monograph.... “Animal trust, undeserved faith, when at last will you turn away from us? Shall we never tire of deceiving, betraying, tormenting animals before they cease to trust us?”
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

    And seniors grow tomorrow
    From the juniors today,
    And even swimming groups can fade,
    Games mistresses turn grey.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    To a historian libraries are food, shelter, and even muse. They are of two kinds: the library of published material, books, pamphlets, periodicals, and the archive of unpublished papers and documents.
    Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
