NAME

pds.db - small database with planar difference set samples

VERSION

This is version 3.0 of the database, created on Oct 10, 2022.

DESCRIPTION

This file is the default database distributed with the Perl 5 module Math::DifferenceSet::Planar.

It contains 604 cyclic planar difference set planes with orders ranging from 2 to 4096. The planes include std, lex and gap reference sets. For the definition of std reference sets, consult the documentation of Math::DifferenceSet::Planar. Lex reference sets are minimal by lexicographic ordering with priority on small over large elements, so that {0, 1, 3, 9} ranks before {0, 1, 4, 6}. Gap reference sets are minimal by lexicographic ordering with priority on large over small elements, so that {2, 3, 5} ranks before {0, 4, 5}. The database also contains planar difference set space data for the same range of orders. The radices are chosen with the algorithm given in the example program pds_find_space.

FILE FORMAT

SQLite 3.x database.

DATA REPRESENTATION

If D = { d_1, d_2, ..., d_k } (mod m) is a canonical cyclic planar difference set of order k - 1 with d_1 ≡ 0 and d_2 ≡ 1 (mod m), and M = { m_1, m_2, ..., m_n } (mod m) is the set of main elements of its plane, delta_main is a sequence of m numeric values packed in 'w*' format, calculated as differences of consecutive residue values of M starting with m_1, m_2 - m_1, m_3 - m_2, ... up to m_n - m_(n-1). D can be recovered from M by adding derived and fill elements.

In addition to an arbitrary sample the database can hold various types of reference sets for each order. They are encoded by a rotation value with respect to the sample set. If a standard set, a lexically minimal set, or a top-to-bottom lexically minimal set are known, nonzero ref_std, ref_lex, or ref_gap values refer to them, otherwise zero values indicate their respective lack.

If a multiplier set of the form {b^k | 0 ≤ k < e} with a radix b and depth e, and a rotator base of the form {r_1^j_1·r_2^j_2·...·r_n^j_n | 0 ≤ j_k < e_k, 1 ≤ k ≤ n} with n radices r_k and n depths e_k describe the multiplicative space of difference set planes of a given order, rot_radices and rot_depths are vectors of rotation radices and depths packed in 'w*' format.

For both difference set data tables, the database_version table contains schema version information to facilitate quick compatibility checks. A schema version of x.y is represented as major = x and minor = y.
