##O  DualPlane( <plane> )  generate dual plane
##
##  For a projective plane <plane>, `DualPlane( <blocks> )' returns
##  the dual plane. This plane is represented by a record as usual, but 
##  additionally contains  and a list <.image> of blocks such that 
##  <image[p]> is the image of the point <p> under duality.
##  It is not tested, if <plane> is actually a projective plane.

#O ProjectiveClosureOfPointSet(<points>[,<maxsize>],<plane>)
##
##  Let <plane> be a projective plane. Let <points> be a set of non-collinear
##  points (integers) of this plane. Then
##  `ProjectiveClosureOfPointSet' returns a record with the entries <.closure> 
##  and <.embedding>.
##
##  Here <.closure> is the projective closure of <points>  (the smallest 
##  projectively closed subset of <plane> containing the points <points>). 
##  It is not checked, whether this is a projective plane. As the BlockDesign
##  <.closure> has points `[1..w]' and <plane> has poins `[1..v]' with 
##  $w\leq v$, we need an embedding of <.closure> into <plane>. This embedding
##  is the permutation <.embedding>. It is a permutation on `[1..v]' which
##  takes the points of <.closure> to a set of points in <plane> containing
##  <points> and preserving incidence. Note that nothing is known about the
##  behaviour of <.embedding> on any point outside `[1..w]' and 
##  `[1..w]^<.embedding>'.
##
##  If $<maxsize>$ is given and $<maxsize> \neq 0$, calculations are stopped
##  if the closure is known to
##  have at least <maxsize> points and the plane <plane> is returned as 
##  <.closure> with the trivial permutation as embedding.

##   \item{.jblock} a matrix with $ij$-th entry the position of the block 
##       connecting the point $i$ to the point $j$ in <blocks>.
##  \endlist
## 
##  `ElationPrecalcSmall( <blocks> )' returns a record which

#O InducedCollineation(<baerplane>,<baercoll>,<point>,<image>,<planedata>,<embedding>)
##
##  If a projective plane contains a Baer subplane, collineations of the 
##  subplane may be lifted to the full plane. If such an extension to the 
##  full plane exists, it is uniquely determined by the image of one point 
##  outside the Baer plane.
##
##  Here <baercoll> is a collineation (a permutation of the points)
##  of the projective plane <baerplane>. 
##  The permutation <embedding> is a permutation on the points of the full pane
##  which converts the enumeration of <baerplane> to that of the full plane. 
##  This means that the image of the points of <baerplane> under <embedding> 
##  is a subset of the points of <plane>. Namely the one representing the Baer 
##  plane  in the enumeration used for the whole plane.
##  <point> and <image> are points outside the Baer plane.
##
##  The data for <baerplane> and <embedding> can be calculated using 
##  "ProjectiveClosureOfPointSet".
##
##  `InducedCollineation' returns a collineation of the full plane (as a  
##  permutation on the points of <plane>) which takes <point> to <image> and 
##  acts on the Baer plane as <baercoll> does. If no such collineation 
##  exists, `fail' is returned.
##
##  This method needs <plane.jpoint>. If it is unknown, it is calculated (see 
##  "RDS:PointJoiningLinesProjectivePlane")

#O  NrFanoPlanesAtPoints(<points>,<plane>)  invariant for projective planes

##  For a projective plane <plane>, `NrFanoPlanesAtPoints(<points>,<plane>)' 
##  calculates the so-called Fano invariant. That is, for each point 
##  in <points>, the number of subplanes of order 2 (so-called Fano planes)
##  containing this point is calculated.
##  The method returns a list of pairs of the form $[<point>,<number>]$
##  where <number> is the number of Fano sub-planes in <point>.
##
##  This method is faster, if <plane.jpoint> is known (see 
##  "RDS:PointJoiningLinesProjectivePlane"). Indeed, if <plane.jpoint> is 
##  not known, this method is very slow.

##  Let $I$ be the incidence matrix of the projective plane <plane> and <p> a

##  The rank of $I.I^t$ as a matrix over
##  $GF(p)$ is called  <p>-rank of the projective plane. Here $I^t$ denotes
##  the transposed matrix. Note that this is a method within the RDS workspace,
##  so it has to be called as PRank@RDS

##  $E_i$ is incident with $m_i$. Now label the points of $m_i$ as 
##  $<point>=P_{i,1},\dots,P_{i,n+1}=E_i$ and the lines of $E_i$ as
##  $<line>=l_1,\dots,l_{i,n+1}=m_i$. 
##  For $i\not = j$, each $P_{j,k}$ lies on exactly one line 
##  $l_{i,k\sigma_{i,j}}$ containing $E_i$ for some permutation $\sigma_{i,j}$
##
##  Define a matrix $A$, where $A_{i,j}$ is the sign of $\sigma_{i,j}$ if 
##  $i\neq j$ and $A_{i,i}=0$ for all $i$.
##  The partial fingerprint is the multiset of entries of $|AA^t|$ where $A^t$

#O FingerprintProjPlane(<plane>)

##  define an arbitrary but fixed enumeration of the lines through $p$ and 
##  the points on $l$. Say $l_1,\dots,l_{n+1}$ and $p_1,\dots,p_{n+1}$
##  The incidence relation defines a canonical bijection between the $l_i$ and
##  the $p_i$ and hence a permutation on the indices $1,\dots,n+1$. 
##  Let $\sigma_{(p,l)}$ be this permutation.
##
##  Denote the points and lines of the plane by $q_1,\dots q_{n^2+n+1}$ 
##  and $e_1,\dots,e_{n^2+n+1}$. 
##  Define the sign matrix as $A_{ij}=sgn(\sigma_{(q_i,e_j)})$ if $(q_i,e_j)$ 
##  is an anti-flag and $=0$ if it is a flag.
##  Then the fingerprint is defnied as the multiset of the entries of $|AA^t|$.
