On the existence of certain SOLS with Holes
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a pair of MOLS (mutually orthogonal Latin squares) having holes, corresponding to missing sub-MOLS, which are disjoint and spanning. If the two squares are mutual transposes, we say that we have SOLS (self-orthogonal Latin squares) with holes. It is shown that a pair of SOLS with n holes of size h ≥ 2 exist if and only if n ≥ 4 and it is also shown that a pair of SOLS with n holes of size 2 and one hole of size 3 exist for all n ≥ 4, n 6= 13, 15. As an application, we prove a result concerning intersection numbers of transversal designs with four groups.

ON THE EXISTENCE OF PERIODIC SOLUTIONS FOR CERTAIN NON-LINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
Here we consider some non-autonomous ordinary differential equations of order n and present some results and theorems on the existence of periodic solutions for them, which are sufficient conditions, section 1. Also we include generalizations of these results to vector differential equations and examinations of some practical examples by numerical simulation, section 2. For some special cases t...
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 کاملM ar 2 00 3 Non - Existence of Black Holes in Certain Λ < 0 Spacetimes
Assuming certain asymptotic conditions, we prove a general theorem on the non-existence of static regular black holes in spacetimes with a negative cosmological constant, given that the fundamental group of space is infinite. We use this to rule out the existence of regular negative mass AdS black holes with Ricci flat scri. For any mass, we also rule out a class of conformally compactifiable s...
