## 1. Maps Concerning Character Tables
##
## <#GAPDoc Label="[1]{ctblmaps}">
## Besides the characters, <E>power maps</E> are an important part of a
## character table, see Section <Ref Sect="Power Maps"/>.
## Often their computation is not easy, and if the table has no access to
## the underlying group then in general they cannot be obtained from the
## matrix of irreducible characters;
## so it is useful to store them on the table.
## 
## If not only a single table is considered but different tables of a group
## and a subgroup or of a group and a factor group are used,
## also <E>class fusion maps</E>
## (see Section <Ref Sect="Class Fusions between Character Tables"/>)
## must be known to get information about the embedding or simply to induce
## or restrict characters,
## see Section <Ref Sect="Restricted and Induced Class Functions"/>).
## 
## These are examples of functions from conjugacy classes which will be
## called <E>maps</E> in the following.
## (This should not be confused with the term mapping,
## cf. Chapter <Ref Chap="Mappings"/>.)
## In &GAP;, maps are represented by lists.
## Also each character, each list of element orders, of centralizer orders,
## or of class lengths are maps,
## and the list returned by <Ref Func="ListPerm"/>,
## when this function is called with a permutation of classes, is a map.
## 
## When maps are constructed without access to a group, often one only knows
## that the image of a given class is contained in a set of possible images,
## e. g., that the image of a class under a subgroup fusion is in the set of
## all classes with the same element order.
## Using further information, such as centralizer orders, power maps and the
## restriction of characters, the sets of possible images can be restricted
## further.
## In many cases, at the end the images are uniquely determined.
## 
## Because of this approach, many functions in this chapter work not only
## with maps but with <E>parametrized maps</E>
## (or <E>paramaps</E> for short).
## More about parametrized maps can be found
## in Section <Ref Sect="Parametrized Maps"/>.
## 
## The implementation follows <Cite Key="Bre91"/>,
## a description of the main ideas together with several examples
## can be found in <Cite Key="Bre99"/>.

## 2. Power Maps
##
## <#GAPDoc Label="[2]{ctblmaps}">
## The <M>n</M>-th power map of a character table is represented by a list
## that stores at position <M>i</M> the position of the class containing
## the <M>n</M>-th powers of the elements in the <M>i</M>-th class.
## The <M>n</M>-th power map can be composed from the power maps of the
## prime divisors of <M>n</M>,
## so usually only power maps for primes are actually stored in the
## character table.
## 
## For an ordinary character table <A>tbl</A> with access to its underlying
## group <M>G</M>,
## the <M>p</M>-th power map of <A>tbl</A> can be computed using the
## identification of the conjugacy classes of <M>G</M> with the classes of
## <A>tbl</A>.
## For an ordinary character table without access to a group,
## in general the <M>p</M>-th power maps (and hence also the element orders)
## for prime divisors <M>p</M> of the group order are not uniquely
## determined by the matrix of irreducible characters.
## So only necessary conditions can be checked in this case,
## which in general yields only a list of several possibilities for the
## desired power map.
## Character tables of the &GAP; character table library store all
## <M>p</M>-th power maps for prime divisors <M>p</M> of the group order.
## 
## Power maps of Brauer tables can be derived from the power maps of the
## underlying ordinary tables.
## 
## For (computing and) accessing the <M>n</M>-th power map of a character
## table, <Ref Oper="PowerMap"/> can be used;
## if the <M>n</M>-th power map cannot be uniquely determined then
## <Ref Oper="PowerMap"/> returns <K>fail</K>.
## 
## The list of all possible <M>p</M>-th power maps of a table in the sense
## that certain necessary conditions are satisfied can be computed with
## <Ref Oper="PossiblePowerMaps"/>.
## This provides a default strategy, the subroutines are listed in
## Section <Ref Sect="Subroutines for the Construction of Power Maps"/>.

## of <A>n</A>-th powers of the elements in the <M>i</M>-th class of
## <A>tbl</A>.
## 
## If the additional third argument <A>class</A> is present then the
## position of <A>n</A>-th powers of the <A>class</A>-th class is returned.
## 
## If the <A>n</A>-th power map is not uniquely determined by <A>tbl</A>
## then <K>fail</K> is returned.
## This can happen only if <A>tbl</A> has no access to its underlying group.
## 
## The power maps of <A>tbl</A> that were computed already by
## <Ref Oper="PowerMap"/> are stored in <A>tbl</A> as value of the attribute
## <Ref Attr="ComputedPowerMaps"/>,
## the <M>n</M>-th power map at position <M>n</M>.
## <Ref Oper="PowerMap"/> checks whether the desired power map is already

## 3. Class Fusions between Character Tables
##
## <#GAPDoc Label="[4]{ctblmaps}">
## <Index>fusions</Index><Index>subgroup fusions</Index>
## For a group <M>G</M> and a subgroup <M>H</M> of <M>G</M>,
## the fusion map between the character table of <M>H</M> and the character
## table of <M>G</M> is represented by a list that stores at position
## <M>i</M> the position of the <M>i</M>-th class of the table of <M>H</M>
## in the classes list of the table of <M>G</M>.
## 
## For ordinary character tables <A>tbl1</A> and <A>tbl2</A> of <M>H</M> and
## <M>G</M>, with access to the groups <M>H</M> and <M>G</M>,
## the class fusion between <A>tbl1</A> and <A>tbl2</A> can be computed
## using the identifications of the conjugacy classes of <M>H</M> with the
## classes of <A>tbl1</A> and the conjugacy classes of <M>G</M> with the
## classes of <A>tbl2</A>.
## For two ordinary character tables without access to an underlying group,
## or in the situation that the group stored in <A>tbl1</A> is not
## physically a subgroup of the group stored in <A>tbl2</A> but an
## isomorphic copy, in general the class fusion is not uniquely determined
## by the information stored on the tables such as irreducible characters
## and power maps.
## So only necessary conditions can be checked in this case,
## which in general yields only a list of several possibilities for the
## desired class fusion.
## Character tables of the &GAP; character table library store various
## class fusions that are regarded as important,
## for example fusions from maximal subgroups
## (see <Ref Attr="ComputedClassFusions"/>
## and <Ref Attr="Maxes" BookName="ctbllib"/> in the manual for the &GAP;
## Character Table Library).
## 
## Class fusions between Brauer tables can be derived from the class fusions
## between the underlying ordinary tables.
## The class fusion from a Brauer table to the underlying ordinary table is
## stored when the Brauer table is constructed from the ordinary table,
## so no method is needed to compute such a fusion.
## 
## For (computing and) accessing the class fusion between two character
## tables,
## <Ref Oper="FusionConjugacyClasses" Label="for two character tables"/>
## can be used;
## if the class fusion cannot be uniquely determined then
## <Ref Oper="FusionConjugacyClasses" Label="for two character tables"/>
## returns <K>fail</K>.
## 
## The list of all possible class fusion between two tables in the sense
## that certain necessary conditions are satisfied can be computed with
## <Ref Oper="PossibleClassFusions"/>.
## This provides a default strategy, the subroutines are listed in
## Section <Ref Sect="Subroutines for the Construction of Class Fusions"/>.
## 
## It should be noted that all the following functions except
## <Ref Oper="FusionConjugacyClasses" Label="for two character tables"/>
## deal only with the situation of class fusions from subgroups.
## The computation of <E>factor fusions</E> from a character table to the
## table of a factor group is not dealt with here.
## Since the ordinary character table of a group <M>G</M> determines the
## character tables of all factor groups of <M>G</M>, the factor fusion to a
## given character table of a factor group of <M>G</M> is determined up to
## table automorphisms (see <Ref Attr="AutomorphismsOfTable"/>) once
## the class positions of the kernel of the natural epimorphism have been
## fixed.

## it will delegate this task to the underlying ordinary table.)
## 
## Called with two groups <A>H</A> and <A>G</A> where <A>H</A> is a subgroup
## of <A>G</A>,
## <Ref Oper="FusionConjugacyClasses" Label="for two groups"/> returns

## This is done by delegating to the ordinary character tables of <A>H</A>
## and <A>G</A>,
## since class fusions are stored only for character tables and not for
## groups.
## 
## Note that the returned class fusion refers to the ordering of conjugacy
## classes in the character tables if the arguments are character tables
## and to the ordering of conjugacy classes in the groups if the arguments
## are groups
## (see <Ref Attr="ConjugacyClasses" Label="for character tables"/>).
## 
## Called with a group homomorphism <A>hom</A>,
## <Ref Oper="FusionConjugacyClasses" Label="for a homomorphism"/> returns
## the fusion of conjugacy classes between the preimage and the image of
## <A>hom</A>;
## contrary to the two cases above,
## also factor fusions can be handled by this variant.
## If <A>hom</A> is the only argument then the class fusion refers to the
## ordering of conjugacy classes in the groups.
## If the character tables of preimage and image are given as <A>tbl1</A>
## and <A>tbl2</A>, respectively (each table with its group stored),
## then the fusion refers to the ordering of classes in these tables.
## 
## If no class fusion exists or if the class fusion is not uniquely
## determined, <K>fail</K> is returned; this may happen when
## <Ref Oper="FusionConjugacyClasses" Label="for two character tables"/> is
## called with two character tables that do not know compatible underlying

##
## <Description>
## The class fusions from the character table <A>tbl</A> that have been
## computed already by
## <Ref Oper="FusionConjugacyClasses" Label="for two character tables"/> or
## explicitly stored by <Ref Func="StoreFusion"/>
## are stored in the <Ref Attr="ComputedClassFusions"/> list of <A>tbl1</A>.
## Each entry of this list is a record with the following components.
##
## <List>
## <C>name</C>

## the <Ref Attr="Identifier" Label="for character tables"/> value
## of the character table to which the fusion maps,
## </Item>
## <C>map</C>

## <Ref Func="GetFusionMap"/> and the maps entered by
## <Ref Func="StoreFusion"/> if the table <A>destination</A> has a
## nonidentity <Ref Attr="ClassPermutation"/> value.
## So if one fetches a fusion map from a table <A>tbl1</A> to a table
## <A>tbl2</A> via access to the data in the
## <Ref Attr="ComputedClassFusions"/> list of <A>tbl1</A> then the stored
## value must be composed with the <Ref Attr="ClassPermutation"/> value of
## <A>tbl2</A> in order to obtain the correct class fusion.
## (If one handles fusions only via <Ref Func="GetFusionMap"/> and
## <Ref Func="StoreFusion"/> then this adjustment is made automatically.)
## 
## Fusions are identified via the
## <Ref Attr="Identifier" Label="for character tables"/> value of the
## destination table and not by this table itself because many fusions
## between character tables in the &GAP; character table library are stored

## 4. Utilities for Parametrized Maps
##
## <#GAPDoc Label="[6]{ctblmaps}">
## <Index Subkey="parametrized">map</Index>
## <Index>class functions</Index>
## A <E>parametrized map</E> is a list whose <M>i</M>-th entry is either
## unbound (which means that nothing is known about the image(s) of the
## <M>i</M>-th class) or the image of the <M>i</M>-th class
## (i.e., an integer for fusion maps, power maps, element orders etc.,
## and a cyclotomic for characters),
## or a list of possible images of the <M>i</M>-th class.
## In this sense, maps are special parametrized maps.
## We often identify a parametrized map <A>paramap</A> with the set of all
## maps <A>map</A> with the property that either
## <C><A>map</A>[i] = <A>paramap</A>[i]</C> or
## <C><A>map</A>[i]</C> is contained in the list <C><A>paramap</A>[i]</C>;
## we say then that <A>map</A> is contained in <A>paramap</A>.
## 
## This definition implies that parametrized maps cannot be used to describe
## sets of maps where lists are possible images.
## An exception are strings which naturally arise as images when class names
## are considered.
## So strings and lists of strings are allowed in parametrized maps,
## and character constants
## (see Chapter <Ref Chap="Strings and Characters"/>)
## are not allowed in maps.

##
## <Description>
## The composition of two parametrized maps <A>paramap1</A>, <A>paramap2</A>
## is defined as the parametrized map <A>comp</A> that contains
## all compositions <M>f_2 \circ f_1</M> of elements <M>f_1</M> of
## <A>paramap1</A> and <M>f_2</M> of <A>paramap2</A>.
## For example, the composition of a character <M>\chi</M> of a group
## <M>G</M> by a parametrized class fusion map from a subgroup <M>H</M> to
## <M>G</M> is the parametrized map that contains all restrictions of
## <M>\chi</M> by elements of the parametrized fusion map.
## 
## <C>CompositionMaps(<A>paramap2</A>, <A>paramap1</A>)</C>
## is a parametrized map with entry
## <C>CompositionMaps(<A>paramap2</A>, <A>paramap1</A>, <A>class</A>)</C>
## at position <A>class</A>.
## If <C><A>paramap1</A>[<A>class</A>]</C> is an integer then
## <C>CompositionMaps(<A>paramap2</A>, <A>paramap1</A>, <A>class</A>)</C>
## is equal to <C><A>paramap2</A>[ <A>paramap1</A>[ <A>class</A> ] ]</C>.
## Otherwise it is the union of <C><A>paramap2</A>[<A>i</A>]</C> for
## <A>i</A> in <C><A>paramap1</A>[ <A>class</A> ]</C>.
