Dear Pubbers,

I am doing some research with the group G=SL(5,5). I need to the 
equivalence classes of similarity relation on G. These are the sets 
[A] = \{ B^tAB | B \in SL(5,5) \}. How can I get a representative for 
any equivalence classes? Is there a GAP command (or a series of 
commands) which given a finite matrix group G, would return a chain x_1
, ..., x_t of representatives for the mentioned classes?  

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Sincerely,
Alireza
