In “Algorithm for Generating Derivative Structures,” the authors utilize a quotient group to enhance the efficiency of duplicate removal. While removing duplicates caused by translations is straightforward, I find it less clear how rotation operations can be translated into permutation operations using the following equation. Could someone please help me understand this? I appreciate any help you can provide.
