New description:
Let G be a group. A G-cycle index is a map from G to the ring of cycle
index series. These objects are useful for enumerating G-species (species
equipped with an equivariant G-action), where they serve a role analogous
to the cycle indices of species.
This patch offers an implementation of G-cycle indices with their most
important algebraic features (sum, product, and composition/plethysm).
(The plethysm of G-cycle indices is defined in a funny way that really
depends on having access to the whole G-cycle index at once; otherwise,
there wouldn't be much point in having this code.)
This code is (believed to be) complete and functional. It could use a bit
of attention of someone who understand the coersion system better than I
do, though.
