Similarity class types of matrices with entries in a finite field

The notion of a matrix conjugacy class type was introduced by J. A. Green in
[Green55]_, in the context of computing the irreducible characters of finite
general linear groups. The class types are equivalence classes of similarity
classes of square matrices with entries in a finite field which, roughly
speaking, have the same qualitative properties.

For example, all similarity classes of the same class type have centralizers of
the same cardinality and the same degrees of elementary divisors. Qualitative
properties of similarity classes such as semisimplicity and regularity descend
to class types.

The most important feature of similarity class types is that, for any `n`, the
number of similarity class types of `n\times n` matrices is independent of `q`.
This makes it possible to perform many combinatorial calculations treating `q`
as a formal variable.

In order to define similarity class types, recall that similarity classes of
`n\times n` matrices with entries in `\GF{q}` correspond to functions

.. MATH::

    c: \mathrm{Irr}\GF{q[t]} \to \Lambda

such that

.. MATH::

    \sum_{f\in \mathrm{Irr}\GF{q[t]}} |c(f)|\deg f = n,

where we denote the set of irreducible monic polynomials in `\GF{q[t]}`
by `\mathrm{Irr}\GF{q[t]}`, the set of all partitions by `\Lambda`, and
the size of `\lambda \in \Lambda` by `|\lambda|`.

Similarity classes indexed by functions `c_1` and `c_2` as above are said to be
of the same type if there exists a degree-preserving self-bijection `\sigma` of
`\mathrm{Irr}\GF{q[t]}` such that `c_2 = c_1\circ \sigma`. Thus, the type
of `c` remembers only the degrees of the polynomials (and not the polynomials
themselves) for which `c` takes a certain value `\lambda`. Replacing each
irreducible polynomial of degree `d` for which `c` takes a non-trivial value
`\lambda` by the pair `(d, \lambda)`, we obtain a multiset of such pairs.
Clearly, `c_1` and `c_2` have the same type if and only if these multisets are
equal. Thus a similarity class type may be viewed as a multiset of pairs of the
form `(d, \lambda)`.

For `2 \times 2` matrices there are four types::

    sage: for tau in SimilarityClassTypes(2):
    ....:    print(tau)
    [[1, [1]], [1, [1]]]
    [[1, [2]]]
    [[1, [1, 1]]]
    [[2, [1]]]

These four types correspond to the regular split semisimple matrices, the
non-semisimple matrices, the central matrices and the irreducible matrices
respectively.

For any matrix `A` in a given similarity class type, it is possible to calculate
the number elements in the similarity class of `A`, the dimension of the algebra
of matrices in `M_n(A)` that commute  with `A`, and the cardinality of the
subgroup of `GL_n(\GF{q})` that commute with `A`. For each similarity
class type, it is also possible to compute the number of classes of that type
(and hence, the total number of matrices of that type). All these calculations
treat the cardinality `q` of the finite field as a formal variable::

    sage: M = SimilarityClassType([[1, [1]], [1, [1]]])
    sage: M.class_card()
    q^2 + q
    sage: M.centralizer_algebra_dim()
    2
    sage: M.centralizer_group_card()
    q^2 - 2*q + 1
    sage: M.number_of_classes()
    1/2*q^2 - 1/2*q
    sage: M.number_of_matrices()
    1/2*q^4 - 1/2*q^2

We now describe two applications of similarity class types.

We say that an `n \times n` matrix has rational canonical form type `\lambda` for
some partition `\lambda` of `n` if the diagonal blocks in the rational canonical
form have sizes given by the parts of `\lambda`. Thus the matrices with rational
canonical type `(n)` are the regular ones, while the matrices with rational
canonical type `(1^n)` are the central ones.

Using similarity class types, it becomes easy to get a formula for the number of
matrices with a given rational canonical type::

    sage: def matrices_with_rcf(la):
    ....:    return sum([tau.number_of_matrices() for tau in filter(lambda tau:tau.rcf()==la, SimilarityClassTypes(la.size()))])
    sage: matrices_with_rcf(Partition([2,1]))
    q^6 + q^5 + q^4 - q^3 - q^2 - q

Similarity class types can also be used to calculate the number of simultaneous
similarity classes of `k`-tuples of `n\times n` matrices with entries in
`\GF{q}` by using Burnside's lemma::

    sage: from sage.combinat.similarity_class_type import order_of_general_linear_group, centralizer_algebra_dim
    sage: q = ZZ['q'].gen()
    sage: def simultaneous_similarity_classes(n,k):
    ....:     return SimilarityClassTypes(n).sum(lambda la: q**(k*centralizer_algebra_dim(la)), invertible = True)/order_of_general_linear_group(n)
    sage: simultaneous_similarity_classes(3, 2)
    q^10 + q^8 + 2*q^7 + 2*q^6 + 2*q^5 + q^4

Similarity class types can be used to calculate the coefficients of generating
functions coming from the cycle index type techniques of Kung and Stong (see
Morrison [Morrison06]_).

Along with the results of [PSS13]_, similarity class types can be used to
calculate the number of similarity classes of matrices of order `n` with entries
in a principal ideal local ring of length two with residue field of cardinality
`q` with centralizer of any given cardinality up to `n = 4`. Among these, the
classes which are selftranspose can also be counted::

    sage: from sage.combinat.similarity_class_type import matrix_centralizer_cardinalities_length_two
    sage: list(matrix_centralizer_cardinalities_length_two(3))
    [(q^6 - 3*q^5 + 3*q^4 - q^3, 1/6*q^6 - 1/2*q^5 + 1/3*q^4),
    (q^6 - 2*q^5 + q^4, q^5 - q^4),
    (q^8 - 3*q^7 + 3*q^6 - q^5, 1/2*q^5 - q^4 + 1/2*q^3),
    (q^8 - 2*q^7 + q^6, q^4 - q^3),
    (q^10 - 2*q^9 + 2*q^7 - q^6, q^4 - q^3),
    (q^8 - q^7 - q^6 + q^5, 1/2*q^5 - q^4 + 1/2*q^3),
    (q^6 - q^5 - q^4 + q^3, 1/2*q^6 - 1/2*q^5),
    (q^6 - q^5, q^4),
    (q^10 - 2*q^9 + q^8, q^3),
    (q^8 - 2*q^7 + q^6, q^4 - q^3),
    (q^8 - q^7, q^3 + q^2),
    (q^12 - 3*q^11 + 3*q^10 - q^9, 1/6*q^4 - 1/2*q^3 + 1/3*q^2),
    (q^12 - 2*q^11 + q^10, q^3 - q^2),
    (q^14 - 2*q^13 + 2*q^11 - q^10, q^3 - q^2),
    (q^12 - q^11 - q^10 + q^9, 1/2*q^4 - 1/2*q^3),
    (q^12 - q^11, q^2),
    (q^14 - 2*q^13 + q^12, q^2),
    (q^18 - q^17 - q^16 + q^14 + q^13 - q^12, q^2),
    (q^12 - q^9, 1/3*q^4 - 1/3*q^2),

        Return the sum of a local statistic over all types.

    r"""
    Generate pairs consisting of centralizer cardinalities of matrices over a
    principal ideal local ring of length two with residue field of order ``q``
    and their frequencies.

    INPUT:

    - ``n`` -- the order
    - ``q`` -- (default: `q`) an integer or an indeterminate
    - ``selftranspose`` -- (default: ``False``) boolean stating if we only want
      selftranspose type
    - ``invertible`` -- (default: ``False``) boolean stating if we only want
      invertible type
