Apologies if this is answered elsewhere in this group or in the documentation, but I have not found the answer.
When computing a galois group in sage using type='pari' Sage gives the group a name. I have not been able to find a guide for the nomenclature used. For example, names like S_3 and D(4) are fairly clear. But what is 2^3 S_3 and 2^4 S_4 - I presume they are the wreath products (\Z/2)^n . S_n. Is there a reference? And am I right about 2^n S_n Thanks Steve -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
