Abstract

We shall refer to a diagonal Latin square which is orthogonal to its (3,1,2)‐conjugate, and the latter is also a diagonal Latin square, as a (3,1, 2)‐conjugate orthogonal diagonal Latin square, briefly CODLS. This article investigates the spectrum of CODLS and it is found that it contains all positive integers Ο… except 2, 3, 6, and possibly 10. Β© 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

In this article we give some new constructions of self-conjugate self-orthogonal diagonal Latin squares (SCSODLS). As an application of such constructions, we give a conclusive result regarding the existence of SCSODLS and show that there exists an SCSODLS of order n if and only if n ≑ 0, 1 (mod 4),

We prove that there exists a pair of orthogonal diagonal Latin squares of order v with missing subsquares of side n (ODLS(v,n)) for all v ~> 3n + 2 and v -n even. Further, there exists a magic square of order v with missing subsquare of side n (MS(v, n)) for all v ~> 3n + 2 and v -n even.

Let us denote by COILS(v) a (3,2, l)-conjugate orthogonal idempotent Latin square of order v, and by ICOILS(v, n) an incomplete COILS(v) missing a sub-COILS(n). A necessary condition for the existence of an ICOILS(v, and the necessary condition for its existence has recently been shown by the auth
