GenomAutomorphism: An R package to compute the automorphisms between DNA sequences represented as elements from an Abelian group.

This is a R package to compute the automorphisms between pairwise aligned DNA sequences represented as elements from a Genomic Abelian group as described in reference (1). In a general scenario, whole chromosomes or genomic regions from a population (from any species or close related species) can be algebraically represented as a direct sum of cyclic groups or more specifically Abelian \(p\)-groups. Basically, we propose the representation of multiple sequence alignments (MSA) of length \(N\) as a finite Abelian group created by the direct sum of homocyclic Abelian group of prime-power order.
