Dear Colleagues, I have a computation where the results are stored and displayed in a max by conj matrix. Here max is the number of conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups and conj is the number of conjugacy classes of elements.
The orders of the rows and columns corresponds to the classes. But gap doesn't generate the conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups in the same order every time; I don't know about classes of elements as I haven't noticed any difference in the matrix (but I suppose that might depend of the type of computations I'm doing). Ok, so my question is: Is there a way to get gap to present the results in the same order every time? I suppose I could sort the results by order of subgroup size. But that wouldn't necessarily uniquely order the representatives of the conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups. Is there anything reasonable to do? For conjugacy classes of elements, gap doesn't seem to sort by size or order, but does seem reasonably consistent, at least for the small examples I've looked at. Suggestions most welcome! Thanks!
