The Group C2 (a) |

Silviu Radu managed to do a complete analysis of the 15,288,238,080 different cubes of this subgroup. Here the the table with the distances, the average distance is 17.49:
Up to M-symmetry there are 1,910,682,624 cubes which exactly have this symmetry and 5763 of these cubes need 20 moves. All other cubes can be solved in 19 moves or less. 3165 out of these 5763 cubes with 20 moves have antisymmetry. Up to M-symmetry and M-antisymmetry it are 4464 20f*-cubes, which are included in the file 20moves.zip. We display only some nicer examples of this symmetry class here. The next table gives the number of cubes up to M-symmetry which exactly have C2 (a)-symmetry. To compute this number we used the following identity, where C2 (a)Total is the table above and the right side hold the tables for the number of cubes mod M with exactly the symmetry of the subgroups of C2 (a), which are all known except for C2 (a) itself. C2 (a)Total = 8 C2 (a) + 4 C2v
(a2) + 4 C2h (a) + 4 S4 + 12 D2
(face) + 4 C4 + 4 D2 (edge) + 4 C2v
(a1) + 6 D2h(face) + 2 D2d (edge)
+ 2D2h (edge) + 2C4h + 2C4v + 6 D2d
(face) + The average maneuver length also is 17.49:
