Apr 13, 2013 at 15:57 comment added Geoff Robinson @jp: But I think you mean a Sylow $2$-subgroup of ${\rm GL}(2^{r-1},q)$) when $q \equiv 3$ (mod 4).
Apr 13, 2013 at 15:55 comment added Geoff Robinson @jp: Yes, I mean a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $S_{2^{r}}.$
Apr 13, 2013 at 14:24 comment added j.p. @Geoff: Do you mean with your first description just the $2$-Sylow of the symmetric group $S_{2^r}$? It is for finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q=3 \bmod 4$ also the $2$-Sylow of $GL_{2^r}(\mathbb{F}_q)$.

Apr 13, 2013 at 12:31 comment added Geoff Robinson @Derek: Presumably the group intended is the semidirect product oF elementary Abelian $2$-group of rank $2^{r-1}$ with a Sylow $2$-subgroup of the symmetric group $S_{2^{r-1}},$ or alternatively a Sylow $2$-subgroup of the group of all monomial $2^{r-1} \times 2^{r-1}$ matrices whose only non zero entries are $\pm 1.$
Apr 13, 2013 at 10:29 comment added Derek Holt I am not convinced that $H$ is uniquely defined. The wreath product is an associative operation on permutation groups, but not on abstract groups, and $Z_2$ looks like an abstract group rather than a permutatino group.
