Hi! Suppose I have a polycyclic group G defined via libgap, that I originally obtained from the SmallGroups library. Now I want to pickle that group. Apparently, if I just store the address of G in the small group library, then I can reconstruct G from that. But of course I can not assume that everybody has the SmallGroups library installed. So, I wonder: How can I pickle/unpickle a polycyclic group independently of SmallGroups?
I know that G.Pcgs() returns a polycyclic generating system, but I don't know how to pickle that. Actually G is finite. So, in principle, I could convert it into a permutation group or matrix group, which of course can be pickled. But that seems awkward.
