Odd-power Eisenstein module classification and enumeration of linear Mendelsohn triple systems
Odd-power Eisenstein module classification and enumeration of linear Mendelsohn triple systems
Let and let be a Mendelsohn triple system, where denotes a primitive cube root of unity. Set
The notation refers to the endomorphism defined from the ring homomorphism as in the preceding small-order classification.
Odd-power classification conjecture. There is a quasigroup isomorphism
Moreover, the number of linear Mendelsohn triple systems of order is
where denotes the partition function.
This conjecture extrapolates the classifications established for the first few odd powers of and predicts that the enumeration of linear Mendelsohn triple systems of order is governed by integer partitions. Its status is unresolved in the supplied source.
