Description

Coset enumeration programs implement systematic procedures for enumerating the cosets of a subgroup H of finite index in a group G, given a set of defining relations for G and words generating H.

Parameters

$n$: number of generators

$g$: order of group (possibly exponential in $n$)

$k$: number of relations

$c$: maximum number of generators multiplied together in a relation
