    On the cycle indices of frobenious groups
    (2010) Munywoki, Michael; Kamuti, Ireri; Kivunge, Benard
    There are several very useful formulas, which give the cycle indices of the binary operation of the sum, product, composition and po wer group of M and H in terms of cycle indices of M and H . One very useful binary operation on groups, which has not been exploited, is the semidirect product. Suppose G = M ⋊ H , a semi direct product; the question is: how can we express the cycle index of G in terms of the cycle indices of M and H ? This work partially answers this question by considering the cycle indices of so me particularly semidirect product groups; namely – Frobenious groups
