Dear William,

G_2(3) has a primitive permutation representation on 378 points, so is in GAP's 
library of primitive groups.  The command

gap> PrimitiveGroup(378,7);

appears to identify it (i.e. it's the 7th primitive group of degree 378 in 
GAP's list).  Note that newer releases of GAP may require you to load the group 
libraries separately:

gap> LoadPackage("PrimGrp");

should do this.

If you are looking for matrix representations in GAP format, they can be found 
in the www ATLAS: http://brauer.maths.qmul.ac.uk/Atlas/v3/exc/G23/

Best wishes,
Robert Bailey.

Subject: [GAP Forum] The exceptional group G_2(3)

Dear forum,
                    is there an easy way to construct the exceptional group
G_2(3) in GAP?

Thank you very much
William
