ATLAS: Linear group L2(16)
Order = 4080 = 24.3.5.17.
Mult = 1.
Out = 4.
The following information is available for L2(16):
Standard generators of L2(16) are a and b where
a has order 2, b has order 3 and ab has order 15.
Standard generators of L2(16):2 are c and d where c is in class 2B, d has order 4 and cd has order 15.
Standard generators of L2(16):4 are e and f where e is in class 2A, f is in class 4B/B', ef has order 8, eff has order 6 and efeffefff has order 4.
.
The outer automorphism of order 2 of L2(16) may be achieved by applying
this program to the standard generators.
The outer automorphism of order 4 of L2(16) may be achieved by applying
this program to the standard generators.
(Modulo inner automorphisms, this is the Frobenius automorphism *2.)
Presentations for L2(16), L2(16):2 and L2(16):4 in terms of their standard generators are given below.
< a, b | a2 = b3 = (ab)15 = ((ab)5(ab-1)3)2 = 1 >.
< c, d | c2 = d4 = [c, dcd]2 = cd(cdcd2)2(cd2cd)2cdcd-1 = 1 >.
< e, f | e2 = f4 = (ef)8 = (ef2)6 = (ef)3(ef-1)3(ef)2(ef-1)2(ef)2ef2 = 1 >.

The maximal subgroups of L2(16) are as follows.
The maximal subgroups of L2(16):2 are as follows.
- L2(16).
- 24:(3 × D10).
- A5 × 2.
- F68 = 17:4.
- D10 × S3.

A set of generators for the maximal cyclic subgroups of L2(16) can be obtained
by running this program on the standard
generators. All conjugacy classes can therefore be obtained as suitable
powers of these elements.
