Here is a similar example to that in chapter "RDS:A basic example". But
now we do a little more handwork to see how things work. Now we will
calculate the relative difference sets of ``Dembowski-Piper type d''
and order $16$. These difference sets represent projective planes
which admit a quasiregular collineation group such that the fixed
structure is an anti-flag. See \cite{DembowskiPiper}, \cite{Dembowski}
or \cite{RoederDiss} for details.
To have a little more output, you may want to increase "InfoRDS": \begintt
gap> SetInfoLevel(InfoRDS,3); \endtt
First, define some parameters and calculate the data needed: \beginexample
gap> k:=16;;lambda:=1;;groupOrder:=255;; #Diffset parameters
gap> forbiddenGroupOrder:=15;;
gap> maxtest:=10^6;; #Bound for sig testing
gap> G:=CyclicGroup(groupOrder);
<pc group of size 255 with 3 generators>
gap> Gdata:=PermutationRepForDiffsetCalculations(G);;
gap> MakeImmutable(Gdata);; \endexample
Now the forbidden group is calculated in a very ineffective way. Then
we calculate admissible signatures. As there are only few normal
subgroups in $G$, we calculate them all. For other groups, one should
choose more wisely.
The last step gives better results, if a larger <maxtest> is chosen.
But it also takes more time. To find a suitable <maxtest>, the output
of "SignatureDataForNormalSubgroups" can be used, if
`InfoLevel(InfoRDS)' is at least $2$. Note that for recalculating
signatures, you will have to reset <globalSigData> to `[]'. Try experimenting
with <maxtest> to see the effect of signatures for the generation of
startsets.
Now examine the signatures found. Look if there is a normal subgroup
which has only one admissible signature (of course, you can also use "NormalSgsHavingAtMostNSigs" here):
Great! we'll take the subgroup of index $3$. The cosets modulo this
group will be used to generate startsets and we assume that the
trivial coset contains $8$ elements of the difference set.
So we generate startsets in $U$ and make a first reduction. For this,
we need $U$ and $N$ as lists of integers (recall that difference sets are
asumed to be lists of integers). We will call these lists $Up$ and
$Np$.
Furthermore, we will have to choose a suitable group of automorphisms
for reduction. As $G$ is cyclic, we may take $Gdata.Aac$ here. A good
choice is the stabilizer of all cosets modulo $U$. Yet sometimes
larger groups may be possible. For example if we want to generate
start sets in $U$ and then do a brute force search. In this case, we
may take the stabilizer of $U$ for reduction. %notest \beginexample
gap> U:=First(sigdat,s->s.sigs=[ [ 4, 4, 8 ] ]).subgroup;
Group([ f2, f3 ])
gap> cosets:=RightCosets(G,U);
gap> U1:=cosets[2];;U2:=cosets[3];;
gap> Up:=GroupList2PermList(Set(U),Gdata);;
gap> Np:=GroupList2PermList(Set(N),Gdata);
[ 1, 12, 25, 43, 78, 97, 115, 116, 134, 151, 169, 188, 207, 238, 249 ]
gap> comps:=Difference(Up,Np);;
gap> ssets:=List(comps,i->[i]);;
gap> ssets:=ReducedStartsets(ssets,[Gdata.Aac],sigdat,Gdata.diffTable);
#I Size 80
#I 2/ 0 @ 0:00:00.061
[ [ 3 ], [ 4 ] ] \endexample
Observe that $1$ is assumed to be element of every difference set and
is not recorded explicitly. So the partial difference sets represented
by $ssets$ at this point are {\tt[ [ 1, 3 ], [ 1, 4 ] ]}. Now the
startsets are extended to size $7$ using elements of $Up$. The runtime
varies depending on the output of "SignatureDataForNormalSubgroups"
and hence on $maxtest$. %notest \beginexample
gap> repeat
> ssets:=ExtendedStartsets(ssets,comps,Np,7,Gdata);
> ssets:=ReducedStartsets(ssets,[Gdata.Aac],sigdat,Gdata.diffTable);;
> until ssets=[] or Size(ssets[1])=7;
#I Size 133
#I 3/ 0 @ 0:00:00.133
#I Size 847
#I 4/ 0 @ 0:00:00.949
#I Size 6309
#I 4/ 0 @ 0:00:07.692
#I Size 21527
#I 5/ 0 @ 0:00:28.337
#I Size 15884
#I 4/ 0 @ 0:00:21.837
#I Size 1216
#I 4/ 0 @ 0:00:01.758
gap> Size(ssets);
192 \endexample
At a higher level of "InfoRDS", the number of start sets which are
discarded because of wrong signatures are also shown.
Now the cosets are changed. Here we use the `NoSort' version of "ExtendedStartsets". This leads to a lot of start sets in the first
step. If the number of start sets in $U$ is very large, this could be
too much for a reduction. Then the only option is using the brute
force method. But also for the brute force search, "ExtendedStartSetsNoSort" must be called first (remember that we chos
an enumeration of $G$ and assume the last element from each startset
to be the largeset ``interesting'' one for further completions).
%notest \beginexample
gap> comps:=Difference(GroupList2PermList(Set(U1),Gdata),Np);;
gap> ssets:=ExtendedStartsetsNoSort(ssets,comps,Np,11,Gdata);;
gap> ssets:=ReducedStartsets(ssets,[Gdata.Aac],sigdat,Gdata.diffTable);;
#I Size 8640
#I 9/ 0 @ 0:00:14.159
gap> Size(ssets);
6899 \endexample %
And as above, we continue: % \begintt
repeat
ssets:=ExtendedStartsets(ssets,comps,Np,11,Gdata);
ssets:=ReducedStartsets(ssets,[Gdata.Aac],sigdat,Gdata.diffTable);;
until ssets=[] or Size(ssets[1])=11;
comps:=Difference(GroupList2PermList(Set(U2),Gdata),Np);
RaiseStartSetLevelNoSort(ssets,comps,Np,15,Gdata);
repeat
ssets:=ExtendedStartsets(ssets,comps,Np,15,Gdata);
ssets:=ReducedStartsets(ssets,[Gdata.Aac],sigdat,Gdata.diffTable);;
until ssets=[] or Size(ssets[1])=15; \endtt
