  • Abstract
    Consider the natural action of PGL3(q) on the projective plane PG2(q) over a finite field GF(q). In this paper we split a set of representatives of conjugacy classes of PGL3(q) into a disjoint union of subfamilies gathering the elements that have the same cycle type as a permutation of the points of PG2(q). Also, we count the number of elements in each subfamily. This allows us to obtain formulas for the number of orbits of the action of PGL3(q) on different sets of n-subsets and n-multisubsets of PG2(q). As an application we obtain explicit formulas for the number of isometry classes of different families of codes of dimension three.
