 A semimonomial group over a ring `R` of length `n` is equal to the wreath
 product of the monomial group and the group of ring automorphisms. The
 multiplication of two elements `(\phi, \pi, \alpha)(\psi, \sigma, \beta)`
 with

  * `\phi, \psi \in  {R^*}^n`
  * `\pi, \sigma \in S_n`
  * `\alpha, \beta \in Aut(R)`

 is defined by:
    `(\phi, \pi, \alpha)(\psi, \sigma, \beta) := (\phi * \psi^{\pi,
 \alpha}, \pi * \sigma, \alpha * \beta)`
 with
    `\psi^{\pi, \alpha} := (\alpha^{-1}(\psi_{\pi(0} ) ), \ldots,
 \alpha^{-1}(\psi_{\pi(n-1} ) ) )`
 and an elementwisely defined multiplication of vectors.

 This group plays an important role in coding theory since it is the group
 of all semilinear isometries (relative to the Hamming/Lee/homogenous
 metric) of the ambient space.
