non-split Frobenius map

there are 3 simple groups arising from $SO(8)$, i.e.$ SO(8,F_{q})$, $2D_4(q,q^2)$,$3D_4(q,q^3),$ so I want to know For the $3D_4(q,q^3),$, what is the corresponding Frobenius?

So you must take the graph automorphism of order three. It does not matter which of the two you take. – Wilberd van der Kallen Jun 15 2011 at 14:44

thank you very much – wison Jun 17 2011 at 3:50

... and the reason it doesn't matter is because the two choices are conjugate in $S_3$. – Noam D. Elkies Jun 17 2011 at 5:30

I knew this is classical result using Galois semi-automorphisms and 1-cohomology, furthermore, how to write down the Frobenius? – wison Jun 17 2011 at 5:51
