class PermutationGroup(Basic):
    """The class defining a Permutation group.

    PermutationGroup([p1, p2, ..., pn]) returns the permutation group
    generated by the list of permutations. This group can be supplied
    to Polyhedron if one desires to decorate the elements to which the
    indices of the permutation refer.

    Examples
    ========

    >>> from sympy.combinatorics import Permutation
    >>> Permutation.print_cyclic = True
    >>> from sympy.combinatorics.permutations import Cycle
    >>> from sympy.combinatorics.polyhedron import Polyhedron
    >>> from sympy.combinatorics.perm_groups import PermutationGroup

    The permutations corresponding to motion of the front, right and
    bottom face of a 2x2 Rubik's cube are defined:

    >>> F = Permutation(2, 19, 21, 8)(3, 17, 20, 10)(4, 6, 7, 5)
    >>> R = Permutation(1, 5, 21, 14)(3, 7, 23, 12)(8, 10, 11, 9)
    >>> D = Permutation(6, 18, 14, 10)(7, 19, 15, 11)(20, 22, 23, 21)

    These are passed as permutations to PermutationGroup:

    >>> G = PermutationGroup(F, R, D)
    >>> G.order()
    3674160

    The group can be supplied to a Polyhedron in order to track the
    objects being moved. An example involving the 2x2 Rubik's cube is
    given there, but here is a simple demonstration:

    >>> a = Permutation(2, 1)
    >>> b = Permutation(1, 0)
    >>> G = PermutationGroup(a, b)
    >>> P = Polyhedron(list('ABC'), pgroup=G)
    >>> P.corners
    (A, B, C)
    >>> P.rotate(0) # apply permutation 0
    >>> P.corners
    (A, C, B)
    >>> P.reset()
    >>> P.corners
    (A, B, C)

    Or one can make a permutation as a product of selected permutations
    and apply them to an iterable directly:

    >>> P10 = G.make_perm([0, 1])
    >>> P10('ABC')
    ['C', 'A', 'B']

        The implementation uses a modification of the original product
        replacement algorithm due to Leedham-Green, as described in [1],
        pp. 69-71; also, see [2], pp. 27-29 for a detailed theoretical
        analysis of the original product replacement algorithm, and [4].

        The product replacement algorithm is used for producing random,
        uniformly distributed elements of a group ``G`` with a set of generators
        ``S``. For the initialization ``_random_pr_init``, a list ``R`` of
        ``\max\{r, |S|\}`` group generators is created as the attribute
        ``G._random_gens``, repeating elements of ``S`` if necessary, and the
        identity element of ``G`` is appended to ``R`` - we shall refer to this
        last element as the accumulator. Then the function ``random_pr()``
        is called ``n`` times, randomizing the list ``R`` while preserving
        the generation of ``G`` by ``R``. The function ``random_pr()`` itself
        takes two random elements ``g, h`` among all elements of ``R`` but
        the accumulator and replaces ``g`` with a randomly chosen element
        from ``\{gh, g(~h), hg, (~h)g\}``. Then the accumulator is multiplied
        by whatever ``g`` was replaced by. The new value of the accumulator is
        then returned by ``random_pr()``.

        The elements returned will eventually (for ``n`` large enough) become
        uniformly distributed across ``G`` ([5]). For practical purposes however,
        the values ``n = 50, r = 11`` are suggested in [1].

        The algorithm itself uses some nontrivial results from group theory and
        number theory:
        1) If a transitive group ``G`` of degree ``n`` contains an element
        with a cycle of length ``n/2 < p < n-2`` for ``p`` a prime, ``G`` is the
        symmetric or alternating group ([1], pp. 81-82)
        2) The proportion of elements in the symmetric/alternating group having
        the property described in 1) is approximately ``\log(2)/\log(n)``
        ([1], p.82; [2], pp. 226-227).
        The helper function ``_check_cycles_alt_sym`` is used to
        go over the cycles in a permutation and look for ones satisfying 1).

        with the trivial group. Every nilpotent group is also solvable
        ([1], p.29, [12]).

        Notes
        =====

        The algorithm is described in [1], p.83, and uses the function
        minimal_block to search for blocks of the form ``\{0, k\}`` for ``k``
        ranging over representatives for the orbits of ``G_0``, the stabilizer of
        ``0``. This algorithm has complexity ``O(n^2)`` where ``n`` is the degree
        of the group, and will perform badly if ``G_0`` is small.

        There are two implementations offered: one finds ``G_0``
        deterministically using the function ``stabilizer``, and the other
        (default) produces random elements of ``G_0`` using ``random_stab``,
        hoping that they generate a subgroup of ``G_0`` with not too many more
        orbits than G_0 (this is suggested in [1], p.83). Behavior is changed
        by the ``randomized`` flag.

        is called a block under the action of ``G`` if for all ``g`` in ``G``
        we have ``gB = B`` (``g`` fixes ``B``) or ``gB`` and ``B`` have no
        common points (``g`` moves ``B`` entirely). ([1], p.23; [6]).

        The distinct translates ``gB`` of a block ``B`` for ``g`` in ``G``
        partition the set ``S`` and this set of translates is known as a block
        system. Moreover, we obviously have that all blocks in the partition
        have the same size, hence the block size divides ``|S|`` ([1], p.23).
        A ``G``-congruence is an equivalence relation ``~`` on the set ``S``
        such that ``a ~ b`` implies ``g(a) ~ g(b)`` for all ``g`` in ``G``.
        For a transitive group, the equivalence classes of a ``G``-congruence
        and the blocks of a block system are the same thing ([1], p.23).

        The algorithm below checks the group for transitivity, and then finds
        the ``G``-congruence generated by the pairs ``(p_0, p_1), (p_0, p_2),
        ..., (p_0,p_{k-1})`` which is the same as finding the maximal block
        system (i.e., the one with minimum block size) such that
        ``p_0, ..., p_{k-1}`` are in the same block ([1], p.83).

        It is an implementation of Atkinson's algorithm, as suggested in [1],
        and manipulates an equivalence relation on the set ``S`` using a
        union-find data structure. The running time is just above
        ``O(|points||S|)``. ([1], pp. 83-87; [7]).

        The time complexity of the algorithm used here is ``O(|Orb|*r)`` where
        ``|Orb|`` is the size of the orbit and ``r`` is the number of generators of
        the group. For a more detailed analysis, see [1], p.78, [2], pp. 19-21.
        Here alpha can be a single point, or a list of points.

        If alpha is a single point, the ordinary orbit is computed.
        if alpha is a list of points, there are three available options:

        'union' - computes the union of the orbits of the points in the list
        'tuples' - computes the orbit of the list interpreted as an ordered
        tuple under the group action ( i.e., g((1,2,3)) = (g(1), g(2), g(3)) )
        'sets' - computes the orbit of the list interpreted as a sets

        Notes
        =====

        This version of the Schreier-Sims algorithm runs in polynomial time.
        There are certain assumptions in the implementation - if the trivial
        group is provided, ``base`` and ``gens`` are returned immediately,
        as any sequence of points is a base for the trivial group. If the
        identity is present in the generators ``gens``, it is removed as
        it is a redundant generator.
        The implementation is described in [1], pp. 90-93.

        probability of a wrong answer at most ``2^{-consec\_succ}``,
        provided the random generators are sufficiently random.

        Parameters
        ==========

        base
            The sequence to be extended to a base.
        gens
            The generating set to be extended to a strong generating set.
        consec_succ
            The parameter defining the probability of a wrong answer.
        _random_prec
            An internal parameter used for testing purposes.

        Returns
        =======

        (base, strong_gens)
            ``base`` is the base and ``strong_gens`` is the strong generating
            set relative to it.

        True

        Notes
        =====

        The algorithm is described in detail in [1], pp. 97-98. It extends
        the orbits ``orbs`` and the permutation groups ``stabs`` to
        basic orbits and basic stabilizers for the base and strong generating
        set produced in the end.
        The idea of the extension process
        is to "sift" random group elements through the stabilizer chain
        and amend the stabilizers/orbits along the way when a sift
        is not successful.
        The helper function ``_strip`` is used to attempt
        to decompose a random group element according to the current
        state of the stabilizer chain and report whether the element was
        fully decomposed (successful sift) or not (unsuccessful sift). In
        the latter case, the level at which the sift failed is reported and
        used to amend ``stabs``, ``base``, ``gens`` and ``orbs`` accordingly.
        The halting condition is for ``consec_succ`` consecutive successful
        sifts to pass. This makes sure that the current ``base`` and ``gens``
        form a BSGS with probability at least ``1 - 1/\text{consec\_succ}``.

        Notes
        =====

        This function is extremely lenghty and complicated and will require
        some careful attention. The implementation is described in
        [1], pp. 114-117, and the comments for the code here follow the lines
        of the pseudocode in the book for clarity.

        The complexity is exponential in general, since the search process by
        itself visits all members of the supergroup. However, there are a lot
        of tests which are used to prune the search tree, and users can define
        their own tests via the ``tests`` parameter, so in practice, and for
        some computations, it's not terrible.

        A crucial part in the procedure is the frequent base change performed
        (this is line 11 in the pseudocode) in order to obtain a new basic
        stabilizer. The book mentiones that this can be done by using
        ``.baseswap(...)``, however the current imlementation uses a more
        straightforward way to find the next basic stabilizer - calling the
        function ``.stabilizer(...)`` on the previous basic stabilizer.

    r"""Compute the orbit of alpha ``\{g(\alpha) | g \in G\}`` as a set.

    The time complexity of the algorithm used here is ``O(|Orb|*r)`` where
    ``|Orb|`` is the size of the orbit and ``r`` is the number of generators of
    the group. For a more detailed analysis, see [1], p.78, [2], pp. 19-21.
    Here alpha can be a single point, or a list of points.

    If alpha is a single point, the ordinary orbit is computed.
    if alpha is a list of points, there are three available options:

    'union' - computes the union of the orbits of the points in the list
    'tuples' - computes the orbit of the list interpreted as an ordered
    tuple under the group action ( i.e., g((1,2,3)) = (g(1), g(2), g(3)) )
    'sets' - computes the orbit of the list interpreted as a sets

    For a permutation group ``G``, a transversal for the orbit
    ``Orb = \{g(\alpha) | g \in G\}`` is a set
    ``\{g_\beta | g_\beta(\alpha) = \beta\}`` for ``\beta \in Orb``.
    Note that there may be more than one possible transversal.
