Dear Frédéric Vanhove, dear Forum, A subset of elements of a finite group which generate a conjugate of a fixed cyclic subgroup, is called a "rational class". With the GAP command RationalClasses you find representatives of all classes of cyclic subgroups of a finite group. (There is also the undocumented function RationalClassesPElements( group, prime).) These were used in former versions of GAP as a step to find the conjugacy classes. For some groups it may be faster to compute all ConjugacyClasses(group) and then check for repeated rational classes comparing RationalClass of representatives of the conjugacy classes.
