Abstract
Let
p
be a prime number and consider the vector space consisting of all
p
-by-
p
-by-
p
matrices with entries taken from the field with
p
elements. We wish to construct, list, and describe all those subspaces that are simultaneously invariant under three particular linear transformations on this vector space. Even for small primes
p
, this is an extensive and difficult computational problem. Using an elaborate overall strategy based on concepts from linear algebra, we completely solve this problem for the prime
p
=2, and we have completed several cases of this problem for the prime
p
=3. This problem has connections with classification problems for certain subgroups of wreath product finite groups of prime-power order.
