Abstract

We show by explicit construction that the equivalence classes of multiplicative central (p n , p n , p n , 1)-RDSs relative to ${\mathbb Z}_p^n$ in groups E with $E/{\mathbb Z}_p^n \cong {\mathbb Z}_p^n$ are in one-to-one correspondence with the strong isotopism classes of presemifields of order p n . We also show there are 1,446 equivalence classes of central (16, 16, 16, 1)-RDS relative to ${\mathbb Z}_2^4$ , in groups E for which $E/{\mathbb Z}_2^4 \cong {\mathbb Z}_2^4$ . Only one is abelian.
