Implement stabilizer
for (transitive?) G-sets
#3259
Comments
@ThomasBreuer @mjrodgers it would be great if you could resolve this feature request |
If the action is not transitive, then we could have different results depending on which representative is chosen. How should this be handled in this case? |
As Max wrote, (Jens Brandt @flyingapfopenguin had talked to me about this feature just an hour ago. I will provide a pull request.) |
Yes, I guess I understand that |
I would already be happy with |
I would expect
stabilizer(gset)
to return the stabilizer ofrepresentative(gset)
with respect to the action.Moreover, I would expect it to cache that stabilizer.
This way it would be a very natural fit for e.g. representing conjugacy classes, or the result of orbit-stabilizer computations
This mirrors the GAP function
StabilizerOfExternalSet
One might perhaps restrict this to transitive G-sets, though technically there is no reason as long as we are clear what it means.
