Equivalence classes of Latin squares and nets in P 2

Corey Dunn, Matthew Miller, Max Wakefield, Sebastian Zwicknagl (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

The fundamental combinatorial structure of a net in P 2 is its associated set of mutually orthogonal Latin squares. We define equivalence classes of sets of orthogonal Latin squares by label equivalences of the lines of the corresponding net in P 2 . Then we count these equivalence classes for small cases. Finally we prove that the realization spaces of these classes in P 2 are empty to show some non-existence results for 4-nets in P 2 .

Factoring an odd abelian group by lacunary cyclic subsets

Sándor Szabó (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

It is a known result that if a finite abelian group of odd order is a direct product of lacunary cyclic subsets, then at least one of the factors must be a subgroup. The paper gives an elementary proof that does not rely on characters.
