All Implemented Interfaces:

MathInterface

public class PermutationGroup

extends MathObject

This class represents a permutation group using GAP's permutation CD and PolyMath's OpenMath library. This object is immutable.

Constructor Summary

PermutationGroup()
Construct the trivial group

PermutationGroup(javamath.util.math.OMApplication app)
Construct a group from an OMApplication encoding

PermutationGroup(Permutation[] gens)
Construct a group from a Permutation array.

Method Summary

javamath.util.math.OMObject	toOMObject() Construct an OMObject encoding for the group.
java.lang.String	toString() Create a reasonable string encoding.
