My obligatory question on finitely presented groups for this week. I have the following situation, where I can compute the order, but not the elements, of an f.p. group. Is there any trick to make this work?
julia> F = free_group(2);
julia> x, y = gens(F);
julia> rels = [y^-2*x^-4*y^-2*x^4, y^4*x^-1*y*x^5*y^-5*x^-4*y^4*x];
julia> Q, = quo(F, rels);
julia> order(Q)
36
julia> collect(Q)

First I thought that this might be another example where we know the order of a finitely presented group, but where it is hard to find a faithful permutation representation.
However, this is not really the case.
(Thus you can ask for isomorphism(PermGroup, Q), compute the elements in the image, and map them back to Q if necessary; the computation of the isomorphism takes some time.)
I do not understand why the GAP function called by collect runs into the above coset enumeration problem; I will ask the GAP experts ...
