It is a Las Vegas algorithm with running time O{log(q)} field operations, and a preprocessing step with running time O{log(q) loglog(q)} field operations. The latter step needs an oracle for the discrete logarithm problem in GF(q). We also produce a recognition algorithm for Sz(q) = <X>. This is a Las Vegas algorithm with running time O{|X|^2} field operations. Finally, we give a Las Vegas algorithm that, given <X>^h = Sz(q) for some h in GL(4, q), finds some g such that <X>^g = Sz(q). The running time is O{log(q) loglog(q) + |X|} field operations. Implementations of the algorithms are available for the computer system MAGMA.Group TheoryData Structures and Algorithms20H30, 68Q25, 68W20 (Primary) 20P05, 20C33, 20C40 (Secondary)Recognising the Suzuki groups in their natural representationstext
