We describe the theory and implementation of a practical algorithm for computing a Sylow subgroup of a permutation group and for finding an element that conjugates one Sylow subgroup to another. The performance of the current implementations in the Magma system represents a significant improvement o

We present a practical algorithm to solve the orbit-stabilizer problem for subgroups of the free abelian group Z d under the action of a polycyclic group of automorphisms. As an application we obtain a practical algorithm to compute the normalizer of a subgroup and, similarly, we can solve the subgr
We describe the theory and implementation of practical algorithms for computing chief and composition series and socles in large permutation groups. The theory is valid for permutation degrees up to 10 000 000, and the current implementations in the Magma system are practical up to degrees of 1 000
