On large random almost euclidean bases.
A well known result of R. Dedekind states that a lattice is nonmodular if and only if it has a sublattice isomorphic to . Similarly a lattice is nondistributive if and only if it has a sublattice isomorphic to or (see [11]). Recently a few results in this spirit were obtained involving the number of polynomials of an algebra (see e.g. [1], [3], [5], [6]). In this paper we prove that a nondistributive Steiner quasigroup (G,·) has at least 21 essentially ternary polynomials (which improves the...
We give a construction of orthogonal Latin -dimensional cubes (or Latin hypercubes) of order for every natural number and . Our result generalizes the well known result about orthogonal Latin squares published in 1960 by R. C. Bose, S. S. Shikhande and E. T. Parker.
One of the most outstanding problems in combinatorial mathematics and geometry is the problem of existence of finite projective planes whose order is not a prime power.
