In case 2, let (2,1)-(1,1) = g1, (1,2)-(2,1) = g2 be the two alternating generators. Let g3 be the leftover generator after stacking alternating g1 and g2. Then the generator circle looks like g1 g2 g1 g2 ... g1 g2 g3. Then the generators corresponding to a step are: | In case 2, let (2,1)-(1,1) = g1, (1,2)-(2,1) = g2 be the two alternating generators.
