This file describes changes in the smallgrp package.
- Don't attempt to load non-existent source files (this was harmless so far as it failed silently, but in future GAP versions may result in a scary warning or even an error)
- Fix
SmallGroupsAvailable(p^7)
to returnfalse
when p > 11 (unless thesglppow
package is loaded) - Update contact details for Max Horn
- Correct the information printed by
SmallGroupsInformation(512)
; it used to claim that the groups with id 387 - 1698 all have p-class 5, but in fact those with id 445 - 858 only have p-class 4. - Minor janitorial changes
- Compress data files to reduce on-disk footprint
- Replaced the GAP Team as maintainer by Max Horn upon request by the authors
- Corrected the number of groups of order 2^10 = 1024; it is 49487367289. This error was pointed out by David Burrell. For details refer to his paper "On the number of groups of order 1024", Comm. Alg. (2021), 1–3.
- In release 1.4, the ordering of groups of orders 3^7, 5^7, 7^7, 11^7 was aligned with Magma. However, due to an oversight this was not applied to SelectSmallGroups and hence not to OneSmallGroup, AllSmallGroups, and IdsOfAllSmallGroups. As a result, these commands in some rare cases may have produced a group with an incorrect IdGroup attribute set respectively listed some groups in the wrong order. This has been fixed.
