Abstract
We describe a practical algorithm for primitivity testing of finite nilpotent linear groups over various fields of characteristic zero, including number fields and rational function fields over number fields. For an imprimitive group, a system of imprimitivity can be constructed. An implementation of the algorithm in MAGMA is publicly available.
