you can find presentations and representations in Atlas of Finite Group Representations, e.g. for Sz(8) see http://brauer.maths.qmul.ac.uk/Atlas/v3/exc/Sz8/ E.g. you can download permutations for 22.Sz(8):3 from http://brauer.maths.qmul.ac.uk/Atlas/v3/permrep/4Sz8d3G1-p2080B0 This data is also available directly in GAP via the package AtlasRep, see http://www.gap-system.org/Packages/atlasrep.html Hope this helps, Dima _______________________________________________ Forum mailing list Forum@mail.gap-system.org http://mail.gap-system.org/mailman/listinfo/forum
