Constructions of complete sets of orthogonal diagonal Sudoku squares

چکیده
We prove that complete sets of orthogonal diagonal Sudoku latin squares (sometimes called Sudoku frames) exist of all orders p, where p is a prime. We also show that complete sets of orthogonal Sudoku frames which are left semi-diagonal exist of all orders p, s > 1. We conjecture that these may be right semi-diagonal also but we do not have a general proof. We show how these complete sets may be constructed.

A short note regarding existence of complete sets of orthogonal diagonal Sudoku squares
In an earlier paper, [A.D. Keedwell, Australas J. Combin. 47 (2010), 227–238], we proved that complete sets of orthogonal diagonal Sudoku latin squares exist of all orders p, where p is a prime. We also showed that complete sets of orthogonal Sudoku latin squares which are left semidiagonal exist of all orders p, s > 1, and we conjectured that these may be right semi-diagonal also but we were n...
متن کاملUpper bounds on sets of orthogonal colorings of graphs
We generalize the notion of orthogonal latin squares to colorings of simple graphs. Two n-colorings of a graph are said to be orthogonal if whenever two vertices share a color in one coloring they have distinct colors in the other coloring. We show that the usual bounds on the maximum size of a certain set of orthogonal latin structures such as latin squares, row latin squares, equi-n squares, ...
متن کاملMore mutually orthogonal Latin squares
A diagonal Latin square is a Latin square whose main diagonal and back diagonal are both transversals. In this paper we give some constructions of pairwise orthogonal diagonal Latin squares. As an application of such constructions we obtain some new infinite classes of pairwise orthogonal diagonal Latin squares which are useful in the study of pairwise orthogonal diagonal Latin squares.
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 کاملOrthogonal diagonal sudoku solutions: an approach via linearity
We prove that members of the complete family of mutually orthogonal sudoku solutions constructed by Petersen and Vis [College Math. J. 40, 174–180] are both parallel linear and diagonal, thereby resolving a conjecture of Keedwell [Australas. J. Combin. 47, 227–238].
