Hello,

I raised an issue via the feedback form
yesterday relating to a very obscure group, but I can see that the problem with incorrect conjugacy class representatives is a lot more widespread.  As an example for a much smaller and less complicated group, you can see here:


that a^10 is listed as an order 2 element for C_18, which is not consistent with the group presentation/order of the group.

For the same group, for order 18 elements, there are repeats in the representative list:

In the raw data that I can see via the API, I can see that the repeats all have different ids for the representative element in the underlying json, so it looks like maybe there’s a data join issue somewhere, or a display issue that’s pulling in the wrong “pretty” name?

Hope that’s helpful.

Thanks,
Rob

 I have created a GitHub issue here:
I will email Rob separately to make sure he sees this.
