This seems incorrect. Zn is abelian for example and it is not isomorphic to any permutation group. Moreover, there are all the continuous groups. Besides, it will be nicer to have some abstract object that is not tied to a concrete representation, even though it will probably just be a wrapper for all the representations supported by sympy. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
