G

a permutation group

Description

• 

The agemo series of a p-group G, where p is a prime number, is the descending normal series

G=℧0⁡G▹℧1⁡G▹…▹℧r⁡G=1

of G whose terms are the successive agemo subgroups ℧n⁡G of G, where ℧0⁡G=G. See GroupTheory[AgemoPGroup]

• 

The AgemoSeries( G ) command constructs the agemo series of a group G, which must be a finite p-group, for some prime p.

• 

The omega series of a finite p-group G is the ascending normal series

1=Ω0⁡G▹Ω1⁡G▹…▹Ωr⁡G=G

of G, whose terms are the successive omega subgroups Ωn⁡G of G. See GroupTheory[OmegaPGroup].

• 

The OmegaSeries( G ) command constructs the omega series of a finite p-group G.

• 

The group G must be an instance of a permutation group.

• 

Both the agemo and omega series of G are represented by a NormalSeries object which admits certain operations common to all normal series.  See GroupTheory[Series].
