Description

subgrel(gens, grelgrp)
gens
-
set of equations designating the generators of the subgroup
grelgrp
the group for which this is a subgroup
Important: The subgrel command has been deprecated. Use the superseding command GroupTheory[Group] instead.
The function subgrel is used as a procedure and an unevaluated procedure call. As a procedure, subgrel checks its arguments and then either exits with an error or returns the unevaluated subgrel call.
The first argument is a set of equations or words on the generators of the parent group. The left side of each equation is the name of a subgroup generator; the right side is a word in the group generators (see grelgroup) representing the subgroup generator. If only a word is specified, then a name for the generator is produced automatically.
subgrel⁡x=a,b,1a,grelgroup⁡a,b,b,b,a,a,a
the next example will give an error:
subgrel⁡y=a,b,c,grelgroup⁡a,b,a,a,b,a
Error, (in subgrel) generator [a, b, c] contains a syllable `c' that is not a generator, or the inverse of a generator, of the parent group
Maple will generate names for any unnamed generators:
subgrel⁡u=b,b,a,a,a,grelgroup⁡a,b,a,b,1a,1b
subgrel⁡_x0=a,a,a,u=b,b,grelgroup⁡a,b,a,b,1a,1b
