Finitely Presented Groups

Finitely presented groups are constructed as quotients of
:mod:`~sage.groups.free_group`::

    sage: F.<a,b,c> = FreeGroup()
    sage: G = F / [a^2, b^2, c^2, a*b*c*a*b*c]
    sage: G
    Finitely presented group < a, b, c | a^2, b^2, c^2, (a*b*c)^2 >

One can create their elements by multiplying the generators or by
specifying a Tietze list (see
:meth:`~sage.groups.finitely_presented.FinitelyPresentedGroupElement.Tietze`)
as in the case of free groups::

    sage: G.gen(0) * G.gen(1)
    a*b
    sage: G([1,2,-1])
    a*b*a^-1
    sage: a.parent()
    Free Group on generators {a, b, c}
    sage: G.inject_variables()
    Defining a, b, c
    sage: a.parent()
    Finitely presented group < a, b, c | a^2, b^2, c^2, (a*b*c)^2 >

Notice that, even if they are represented in the same way, the
elements of a finitely presented group and the elements of the
corresponding free group are not the same thing.  However, they can be
converted from one parent to the other::

    sage: F.<a,b,c> = FreeGroup()
    sage: G = F / [a^2,b^2,c^2,a*b*c*a*b*c]
    sage: F([1])
    a
    sage: G([1])
    a
    sage: F([1]) is G([1])
    False
    sage: F([1]) == G([1])
    False
    sage: G(a*b/c)
    a*b*c^-1
    sage: F(G(a*b/c))
    a*b*c^-1

Finitely presented groups are implemented via GAP. You can use the
:meth:`~sage.groups.libgap_wrapper.ParentLibGAP.gap` method to access
the underlying LibGAP object::

    sage: G = FreeGroup(2)
    sage: G.inject_variables()
    Defining x0, x1
    sage: H = G / (x0^2, (x0*x1)^2, x1^2)
    sage: H.gap()
    <fp group on the generators [ x0, x1 ]>

This can be useful, for example, to use GAP functions that are not yet
wrapped in Sage::

    sage: H.gap().LowerCentralSeries()
    [ Group(<fp, no generators known>), Group(<fp, no generators known>) ]

The same holds for the group elements::

    sage: G = FreeGroup(2)
    sage: H = G / (G([1, 1]), G([2, 2, 2]), G([1, 2, -1, -2]));  H
    Finitely presented group < x0, x1 | x0^2, x1^3, x0*x1*x0^-1*x1^-1 >
    sage: a = H([1])
    sage: a
    x0
    sage: a.gap()
    x0
    sage: a.gap().Order()
    2
    sage: type(_)    # note that the above output is not a Sage integer
    <type 'sage.libs.gap.element.GapElement_Integer'>

You can use call syntax to replace the generators with a set of
arbitrary ring elements. For example, take the free abelian group
obtained by modding out the commutator subgroup of the free group::

    sage: G = FreeGroup(2)
    sage: G_ab = G / [G([1, 2, -1, -2])];  G_ab
    Finitely presented group < x0, x1 | x0*x1*x0^-1*x1^-1 >
    sage: a,b = G_ab.gens()
    sage: g =  a * b
    sage: M1 = matrix([[1,0],[0,2]])
    sage: M2 = matrix([[0,1],[1,0]])
    sage: g(3, 5)
    15
    sage: g(M1, M1)
    [1 0]
    [0 4]
    sage: M1*M2 == M2*M1   # matrices do not commute
    False
    sage: g(M1, M2)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    ValueError: the values do not satisfy all relations of the group

.. WARNING::

    Some methods are not guaranteed to finish since the word problem
    for finitely presented groups is, in general, undecidable. In
    those cases the process may run until the available memory is
    exhausted.

        Return the direct product of ``self`` with finitely presented
        group ``H``.

        Calls GAP function ``DirectProduct``, which returns the direct
        product of a list of groups of any representation.

        From [Joh1990]_ (pg 45, proposition 4): If `G`, `H` are groups
        presented by `\langle X \mid R \rangle` and `\langle Y \mid S \rangle`
        respectively, then their direct product has the presentation
        `\langle X, Y \mid R, S, [X, Y] \rangle` where `[X, Y]` denotes the
        set of commutators `\{ x^{-1} y^{-1} x y \mid x \in X, y \in Y \}`.

        INPUT:

        - ``H`` -- a finitely presented group

        - ``reduced`` -- (default: ``False``) boolean; if ``True``, then
          attempt to reduce the presentation of the product group

        - ``new_names`` -- (default: ``True``) boolean; If ``True``, then
          lexicographical variable names are assigned to the generators of
          the group to be returned. If ``False``, the group to be returned
          keeps the generator names of the two groups forming the direct
          product. Note that one cannot ask to reduce the output and ask
          to keep the old variable names, as they may change meaning
          in the output group if its presentation is reduced.

        OUTPUT:

        The direct product of ``self`` with ``H`` as a finitely
        presented group.

        EXAMPLES::

            sage: G = FreeGroup()
            sage: C12 =  ( G / [G([1,1,1,1])] ).direct_product( G / [G([1,1,1])]); C12
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a^4, b^3, a^-1*b^-1*a*b >
            sage: C12.order(), C12.as_permutation_group().is_cyclic()
            (12, True)
            sage: klein = ( G / [G([1,1])] ).direct_product( G / [G([1,1])]); klein
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a^2, b^2, a^-1*b^-1*a*b >
            sage: klein.order(), klein.as_permutation_group().is_cyclic()
            (4, False)

        We can keep the variable names from ``self`` and ``H`` to examine how
        new relations are formed::

            sage: F = FreeGroup("a"); G = FreeGroup("g")
            sage: X = G / [G.0^12]; A = F / [F.0^6]
            sage: X.direct_product(A, new_names=False)
            Finitely presented group < g, a | g^12, a^6, g^-1*a^-1*g*a >
            sage: A.direct_product(X, new_names=False)
            Finitely presented group < a, g | a^6, g^12, a^-1*g^-1*a*g >

        Or we can attempt to reduce the output group presentation::

            sage: F = FreeGroup("a"); G = FreeGroup("g")
            sage: X = G / [G.0]; A = F / [F.0]
            sage: X.direct_product(A, new_names=True)
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a, b, a^-1*b^-1*a*b >
            sage: X.direct_product(A, reduced=True, new_names=True)
            Finitely presented group <  |  >

        But we cannot do both::

            sage: K = FreeGroup(['a','b'])
            sage: D = K / [K.0^5, K.1^8]
            sage: D.direct_product(D, reduced=True, new_names=False)

        The semidirect product of ``self`` with ``H`` via ``hom``.

        If there exists a homomorphism `\phi` from a group `G` to the
        automorphism group of a group `H`, then we can define the semidirect
        product of `G` with `H` via `\phi` as the Cartesian product of `G`
        and `H` with the operation

        .. MATH::

                (g_1, h_1)(g_2, h_2) = (g_1 g_2, \phi(g_2)(h_1) h_2).

        INPUT:

        - ``H`` -- Finitely presented group which is implicitly acted on
          by ``self`` and can be naturally embedded as a normal subgroup
          of the semidirect product.

        - ``hom`` -- Homomorphism from ``self`` to the automorphism group
          of ``H``. Given as a pair, with generators of ``self`` in the
          first slot and the images of the corresponding generators in the
          second. These images must be automorphisms of ``H``, given again
          as a pair of generators and images.

        - ``check`` -- Boolean (default ``True``). If ``False`` the defining
          homomorphism and automorphism images are not tested for validity.
          This test can be costly with large groups, so it can be bypassed
          if the user is confident that his morphisms are valid.

        - ``reduced`` -- Boolean (default ``False``). If ``True`` then the
          method attempts to reduce the presentation of the output group.

        OUTPUT:

        The semidirect product of ``self`` with ``H`` via ``hom`` as a
        finitely presented group. See

        EXAMPLES:

        Group of order 12 as two isomorphic semidirect products::

            sage: D4 = groups.presentation.Dihedral(4)
            sage: C3 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(3)
            sage: alpha1 = ([C3.gen(0)],[C3.gen(0)])
            sage: alpha2 = ([C3.gen(0)],[C3([1,1])])
            sage: S1 = D4.semidirect_product(C3, ([D4.gen(1), D4.gen(0)],[alpha1,alpha2]))
            sage: C2 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(2)
            sage: Q = groups.presentation.DiCyclic(3)
            sage: a = Q([1]); b = Q([-2])
            sage: alpha = (Q.gens(), [a,b])
            sage: S2 = C2.semidirect_product(Q, ([C2.0],[alpha]))
            sage: S1.is_isomorphic(S2)
            #I  Forcing finiteness test
            True

        Dihedral groups can be constructed as semidirect products
        of cyclic groups::

            sage: C2 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(2)
            sage: C8 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(8)
            sage: hom = (C2.gens(), [ ([C8([1])], [C8([-1])]) ])
            sage: D = C2.semidirect_product(C8, hom)
            sage: D.as_permutation_group().is_isomorphic(DihedralGroup(8))
            True

        You can attempt to reduce the presentation of the output group::

            sage: D = C2.semidirect_product(C8, hom); D
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a^2, b^8, a^-1*b*a*b >
            sage: D = C2.semidirect_product(C8, hom, reduced=True); D
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a^2, a*b*a*b, b^8 >

            sage: C3 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(3)
            sage: C4 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(4)
            sage: hom = (C3.gens(), [(C4.gens(), C4.gens())])
            sage: C3.semidirect_product(C4, hom)
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a^3, b^4, a^-1*b*a*b^-1 >
            sage: D = C3.semidirect_product(C4, hom, reduced=True); D
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a^3, b^4, a^-1*b*a*b^-1 >
            sage: D.as_permutation_group().is_cyclic()
            True

        You can turn off the checks for the validity of the input morphisms.
        This check is expensive but behavior is unpredictable if inputs are
        invalid and are not caught by these tests::

            sage: C5 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(5)
            sage: C12 = groups.presentation.Cyclic(12)
            sage: hom = (C5.gens(), [(C12.gens(), C12.gens())])
            sage: sp = C5.semidirect_product(C12, hom, check=False); sp
            Finitely presented group < a, b | a^5, b^12, a^-1*b*a*b^-1 >
            sage: sp.as_permutation_group().is_cyclic(), sp.order()
            (True, 60)

        TESTS:

        The following was fixed in Gap-4.7.2::

            sage: C5.semidirect_product(C12, hom) == sp
            True

        A more complicated semidirect product::

            sage: C = groups.presentation.Cyclic(7)
            sage: D = groups.presentation.Dihedral(5)
            sage: id1 = ([C.0], [(D.gens(),D.gens())])
            sage: Se1 =  C.semidirect_product(D, id1)
            sage: id2 = (D.gens(), [(C.gens(),C.gens()),(C.gens(),C.gens())])
            sage: Se2 =  D.semidirect_product(C ,id2)
            sage: Dp1 = C.direct_product(D)
            sage: Dp1.is_isomorphic(Se1), Dp1.is_isomorphic(Se2)
            #I  Forcing finiteness test
            #I  Forcing finiteness test
            (True, True)

        Most checks for validity of input are left to GAP to handle::

            sage: bad_aut = ([C.0], [(D.gens(),[D.0, D.0])])
            sage: C.semidirect_product(D, bad_aut)

        A matrix with coefficients in the group algebra. If ``im_gens`` is
