ATLAS: Alternating group A10
Order = 1814400 = 27.34.52.7.
Mult = 2.
Out = 2.
Standard generators
Standard generators of A10 are a
and b where
a is in class 3A, b has order 9,
ab has order 8 and abb has order 12.
In the natural representation we may take
a = (1, 2, 3) and
b = (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).
Standard generators of the double cover 2.A10 are preimages A and B where
A has order 3 and B has order 9.
Standard generators of S10 = A10.2 are c
and d where
c is in class 2C,
d has order 9
and cd has order 10.
In the natural representation we may take
c = (1, 2) and
d = (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).
Standard generators of either of the double covers 2.S10 are preimages C and D where
D has order 9.
In the natural representations given here, we have a = cd-1cd = [c, d] and b = d.
Automorphisms
An outer automorphism of A10 may be realised by mapping (a, b) to (a-1, ba-1). In the natural representations given here, this outer automorphism is conjugation by c.

Maximal subgroups
The maximal subgroups of A10 are:

Conjugacy classes
We define class 9A to be the class containing b, and class
21A to be the class containing abbb. This choice is
compatible with the ABC.
