Description

mulperms(perm1, perm2)
perm1, perm2
-
the permutations in disjoint cycle notation
Important: The group package has been deprecated. Use the superseding command GroupTheory[PermProduct] instead.
The product is expressed in disjoint cycle notation.
The command with(group,mulperms) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
with⁡group:
mulperms⁡2,3,4,1,6,4,6
1,4,2,3,6
The following convention is used for the order of the multiplication: The product is the permutation obtained by first applying perm1, and then perm2. Therefore, the result of the following operation will not be [[2,3]] but [[1,3]].
mulperms⁡1,2,1,2,3
1,3
