Strongly symmetric self-orthogonal diagonal Latin squares and Yang Hui type magic squares
Keywords: Self-orthogonal Latin square Strongly symmetric Magic square Yang Hui type a b s t r a c t In this paper, a strongly symmetric self-orthogonal diagonal Latin square of order n with a special property (* SSSODLS(n)) is introduced. It is proved that a * SSSODLS(n) exists if and only if n ≡ 0 (mod 4) and n ̸ = 4. As an application, it is shown that there exists a Yang Hui type magic squar...
متن کاملOn the existence of self-orthogonal diagonal Latin squares
A diagonal Latin square is a Latin square whose main diagonal and back diagonal are both transversals. A Latin square is self-orthogonal if it is orthogonal to its transpose. In an earlier paper Danhof, Phillips and Wallis considered the question of the existence of self-orthogonal diagonal Latin squares of order 10. In this paper we shall present some constructions of self-orthogonal diagonal ...
متن کاملOn frame self-orthogonal Latin squares of type hm1n
An SOLS (self orthogonal Latin square) of order v with ni missing subSOLS (holes) of order hi (1 ≤ i ≤ k), which are disjoint and spanning (i.e. ∑k i=1 nihi = v), is called a frame SOLS and denoted by FSOLS(h n1 1 h n2 2 · · ·hk k ). In this paper, we prove that: if h ≥ 7, m ≥ 4, n ≥ 4 and n = 6, then there exists an FSOLS(h1); an FSOLS(h1) exists if h ≥ 7, h = 8, 12, 28 and m ≥ 17.
متن کاملEnumeration of self-orthogonal Latin squares
The enumeration of self-orthogonal Latin squares (SOLS) of a given order seems to be an open problem in the literature on combinatorial designs. The existence of at least one SOLS is guaranteed for any order except 2, 3 and 6, but it is not known how many of these squares of a given order exist. In this talk we present enumeration tables of unequal SOLS, idempotent SOLS, isomorphism classes of ...
متن کاملNew bounds for pairwise orthogonal diagonal Latin squares
A diagonal Latin square is a Latin square whose main diagonal and back diagonal are both transversals. Let dr be the least integer such that for all n > dr there exist r pairwise orthogonal diagonal Latin squares of order n. In a previous paper Wallis and Zhu gave several bounds on the dr. In this paper we shall present some constructions of pairwise orthogonal diagonal Latin squares and conseq...
