Robustness in the various analysis of variance models should be assessed with regard to all the assumptions. Here we assess the etTect of the continuity assumption. The models considered were chosen because they are in a sense fragile, and the elTects might be anticipated to be more dramatic here. W

On the Number of Even and Odd Latin Squares of Orderp+1

✍ Arthur A Drisko 📂 Article 📅 1997 🏛 Elsevier Science 🌐 English ⚖ 358 KB

It is shown that given an odd prime p, the number of even latin squares of order p+1 is not equal to the number of odd latin squares of order p+1. This result is a special case of a conjecture of Alon and Tarsi and has implications for various other combinatorial problems, including conjectures of R

## Abstract Suppose that __L__ is a latin square of order __m__ and __P__ ⊑ __L__ is a partial latin square. If __L__ is the only latin square of order __m__ which contains __P__, and no proper subset of __P__ has this property, then __P__ is a __critical set__ of __L__. The critical set spectrum p

We present some new results on a well-known distance measure between evolutionary trees. The trees we consider are free 3-trees having n leaves labeled 0, . . . , n -1 (representing species), and n -2 internal nodes of degree 3. The distance between two trees is the minimum number of nearest neighbo

## Abstract In this paper, we study the problem of constructing sets of __s__ latin squares of order __m__ such that the average number of different ordered pairs obtained by superimposing two of the __s__ squares in the set is as large as possible. We solve this problem (for all __s__) when __m__
