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. ============================== Dr. Robert Bailey School of Science and the Environment (Mathematics) Grenfell Campus Memorial University of Newfoundland Corner Brook, NL A2H 6P9, Canada Office: AS 3022 Phone: +1 (709) 637-6293 Web: http://www2.grenfell.mun.ca/rbailey/ -----Original Message----- From: William Giuliano [mailto:williamgiulian...@gmail.com] Sent: June-21-18 2:24 PM To: Forum@gap-system.org 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?
