Abstract
In this paper we represent each element of the Janko group J(1) as a p ermutation on eleven letters from the projective special linear group L(2)(11), followed by a word of length at most four in the eleven invo lutory symmetric generators. An algorithm for multiplying elements rep resented in this way is described, and computer programs which carry o ut this procedure and others are given in the appendix.
