Qube
The new domain qube.link forwards to . . .
http://finitegeometry.org/sc/64/solcube.html .
More generally, qubes.link forwards to this post,
which defines qubes .
Definition: A qube is a positive integer that is
a prime-power cube , i.e. a cube that is the order
of a Galois field. (Galois-field orders in general are
customarily denoted by the letter q .)
Examples: 8, 27, 64. See qubes.site.

Problem:
For which qubes, visualized as n×n×n arrays,
is it it true that the actions of the two-dimensional
galois-geometry affine group on each n×n face, extended
throughout the whole array, generate the affine group
on the whole array? (For the cases 8 and 64, see Binary
Coordinate Systems and Affine Groups on Small
Binary Spaces.)
