Hi.. Suppose I have a group and want to find whether its a subgroup of SU(3). How can I do that in GAP?

I don't think you can define the group over the complex numbers. GAP is not designed for numerical analysis. However, it is useful for representation theory problems that reduce to combinatorics of roots and weights, like branching and plethysm problems. If you let me know what specific computation you want to do, I might be able to help further. All the best, Scott Murray.
