49 Outline 1 Introduction. 2 Enumeration of PLR r,s,n. 3 Distribution into isomorphism and isotopism classes.

50 Isotopism and isomorphism clases We focus on the distribution of PLR r,s,n into isomorphism and isotopism classes, that is, on the sets I r,s,n and I r,s,n. Lemma Let r, s and n be three positive integers. If rs n, then I r,s,n = I r,s,rs. If s n, then I 1,s,n = s + 1. Let PLR Θ denote the set of r s partial Latin rectangles based on [n] that have an isotopism Θ S r S s S n in its autotopism group. Lemma Let Θ 1 and Θ 2 be two conjugate isotopisms in S r S s S n. Then, PLR Θ1 = PLR Θ2. The set of isotopism classes of PLR Θ1 coincides with that of PLR Θ2.

51 Isotopism and isomorphism clases We focus on the distribution of PLR r,s,n into isomorphism and isotopism classes, that is, on the sets I r,s,n and I r,s,n. Lemma Let r, s and n be three positive integers. If rs n, then I r,s,n = I r,s,rs. If s n, then I 1,s,n = s + 1. Let PLR Θ denote the set of r s partial Latin rectangles based on [n] that have an isotopism Θ S r S s S n in its autotopism group. Lemma Let Θ 1 and Θ 2 be two conjugate isotopisms in S r S s S n. Then, PLR Θ1 = PLR Θ2. The set of isotopism classes of PLR Θ1 coincides with that of PLR Θ2.

52 Isotopism and isomorphism clases To be conjugate is an equivalence relation among isotopisms. Each conjugacy class is characterized by the common cycle structure of its elements. The cycle structure of a permutation π in the symmetric group S m is defined as the expression z π = m d π m... 1 d π 1, where d π i is the number of cycles of length i in the unique cycle decomposition of the permutation π. The cycle structure of an isotopism (α, β, γ) S r S s S n is the triple z Θ = (z α, z β, z γ ). Θ = ((1234), (12)(3)(45), (12)(345)(6)) S 4 S 5 S 6 z Θ = (4, 2 2 1, 321).

53 Isotopism and isomorphism clases CS m : The set of cycle structures of the symmetric group S m. Let z CS m. Let di z of cycle structure z. denote the value of d π i for all permutation π S m Lemma A triple z = (z 1, z 2, z 3 ) CS r CS s CS n is the cycle structure of an isotopism of a non-empty r s partial Latin rectangle based on [n] if and only if there exists a triple (i, j, k) [r] [s] [n] such that lcm(i, j) = lcm(i, k) = lcm(j, k) = lcm(i, j, k) and d z1 i d z2 j d z3 k > 0.

54 Isotopism and isomorphism clases CS m : The set of cycle structures of the symmetric group S m. Let z CS m. Let di z of cycle structure z. denote the value of d π i for all permutation π S m Lemma A triple z = (z 1, z 2, z 3 ) CS r CS s CS n is the cycle structure of an isotopism of a non-empty r s partial Latin rectangle based on [n] if and only if there exists a triple (i, j, k) [r] [s] [n] such that lcm(i, j) = lcm(i, k) = lcm(j, k) = lcm(i, j, k) and d z1 i d z2 j d z3 k > 0.

55 Isotopism and isomorphism clases (z 1, z 2, z 3 ) = PLR Θ for any isotopism Θ of cycle structure (z 1, z 2, z 3 ) CS r CS s CS n. Since the isotopism and the isomorphism groups are finite groups that acts on R r,s,n and R n,n,n, respectively, Burnside s lemma and the number of permutations with a given cycle structure involve: I r,s,n = α S r β S s γ S n (z α, z β, z γ ) r!s!n! = z 1 CS r z 2 CS s z 3 CS n I n = π S n (z π, z π, z π ) n! i [r] j [s] k [n] d z1 i (z 1, z 2, z 3 )!d z2 j!d z3 k! i d z 1 i j d z 2 j k d z 3 k = (z, z, z) z CS n i [n] d i z!i d. i z.

56 Isotopism and isomorphism clases (z 1, z 2, z 3 ) = PLR Θ for any isotopism Θ of cycle structure (z 1, z 2, z 3 ) CS r CS s CS n. Since the isotopism and the isomorphism groups are finite groups that acts on R r,s,n and R n,n,n, respectively, Burnside s lemma and the number of permutations with a given cycle structure involve: I r,s,n = α S r β S s γ S n (z α, z β, z γ ) r!s!n! = z 1 CS r z 2 CS s z 3 CS n I n = π S n (z π, z π, z π ) n! i [r] j [s] k [n] d z1 i (z 1, z 2, z 3 )!d z2 j!d z3 k! i d z 1 i j d z 2 j k d z 3 k = (z, z, z) z CS n i [n] d i z!i d. i z.

57 Isotopism and isomorphism clases Theorem Let Θ = (α, β, γ) be an isotopism of PLR r,s,n. The set PLR Θ is identified with the affine variety defined by the ideal in F 2 [x 111,..., x rsn ] I Θ = I r,s,n x ijk x α(i)β(j)γ(k) : i [r], j [s], k [n]. Further, (z α, z β, z γ ) = PLR Θ = dim F2 (F 2 [x 111,..., x rsn ]/I Θ ).
