Dear GAP forum, is there an efficient way in GAP to get a list of (representatives of) conjugacy classes of involutions in SU(n,q) and SO(n,q)? Specifically for n=4, 5,6, and at least up to q <= 9.
Right now, I use this rather crude code: invs := Filtered(List(ConjugacyClasses(G),Representative), x->Order(x)=2);; Sadly, it works for me only up to q=4. And takes far too long, too ;). Alternatively, could somebody point out a good reference to me where I can find descriptions of the conjugacy classes of involutions in said groups, which I could use to implement relevant code myself? The atlas helps me only so far, since I would like to do this for bigger values of q, too. Thanks as always for you generous help, Max _______________________________________________ Forum mailing list Forum@mail.gap-system.org http://mail.gap-system.org/mailman/listinfo/forum
