Partitions of the 8‐dimensional vector space over GF(2)

Abstract: Let V = V(n,q) denote the vector space of dimension n over GF(q). A set of subspaces of V is called a partition of V if every nonzero vector in V is contained in exactly one subspace of V. Given a partition P of V with exactly a i subspaces of dimension i for 1 ≤ i ≤ n, we have n i=1 a i (q i −1) = q n −1, and we call the n-tuple (a n , a n-1 ,...,a 1 ) the type of P. In this article we identify all 8-tuples (a 8 , a 7 ,...,a 2 , 0) that are the types of partitions of V(8,2). q

“…All partition types of V(n,q) are known in the following cases: for q=2, k=2, d2=3, and d1=2 (El‐Zanati et al ); for q=2 and n7 (El‐Zanati et al ); for q=2, n=8, and di2 for all 1ik (El‐Zanati et al ); for q=2, k=3, n9, d3=n3, d2=3, and d1=2 (Heden ); and finally for kq+1 and dq+1=dq+2=...=dk (Heden ).…”

“…However, there are some rare cases where the existence of a vector space partition was excluded with more involved techniques, see e.g. [12] for the exclusion of a vector space partition of type 4 13 3 6 2 6 in F 8 2 . Nevertheless, the classification of all possible cardinalities of q r -divisible sets of points is an important relaxation.…”

“…n different types of vector space partitions in V (n, 2) Together with Heden, El-Zanati et al [16] investigated the case n = 8 and q = 2 and vector space partitions consisting of spaces of dimension at least equal to 2. It turned out that the packing condition, dimension condition and the tail condition, with just one exception, were both necessary and sufficient in this case.…”
