Dear Sir/Madam, Let x and y be a finite permutation representation,
x:=((6,10,12,14,9)(4,7,11,13,8)); y:=((1,3,6,9,5,2,4)(8,13,14,10,11,7,12)); I want to find the sequence C here from these permutations as, C=[(1,3),(5,2)]; Here C are free vertices that means the points that are fixed under x and moved for y and are consecutive to each other. Let say 1 is fixed for x and 1^y=3 and then 3 is again fixed for x so we will add it in sequence c that i used in program c:=[j] and again 3^y=6 but 6 is not fixed for x so the loop will terminate. further I want to check other moved points of y that are free for x. Here 5 is fixed for x and moved for y, i.e. 5^y=2 and 2^x=2 so C will be C:=[5,2] because 2^y=4 and (4^x)<>4. so here 5 and 2 are consective points and 1 and 3 are consecutive points. this is what I have written in my previous email that 1 and 3 are fixed under x permutation and they are in y cylce next to each other, similarly, 5 and 2 are fixed under x and in y cycle they are next to each other moreover all of its subsequences. For this I tried this program in GAP that gives me only C:=[5,2] ,indeed i want to calculate other value [1,3] by doing the same program. The program I made as follows FindSequenceOfFreeVertices:=function(x,y) local j,c,next; for j in MovedPoints(y) do if j^x=j then c:=[j]; next:=j^y; while next^x=next do Add(c,next); next:=next^y; od; fi; od; Print("sequence of Free Vertices =",c,"\n"); end; I hope this program will be easier for you to understand my question.
