Standard generators

Standard generators of A20 are a of order 3 (belonging to the smallest conjugacy class of elements of order 3), b of order 19 such that ab has order 18 and [a,b] has order 2.
In the natural representation we may take a = (1, 2, 3) and b = (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18,19,20).

Standard generators of S20 are c of order 2 (belonging to the smallest conjugacy class of outer involutions), d of order 19 such that cd has order 20.
In the natural representation we may take c = (1, 2) and d = (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20).
