On the Theory and Application of Sum Composition of Latin Squares and Orthogonal Latin Squares.

摘要

The objective of this paper is three-fold. First, it puts the theory of sum composition of Latin squares and orthogonal Latin squares in its most precise form. Second, it compiles and unifies previous results which have appeared in technical reports and in proceedings of a conference in Italy, which are not readily available. Finally, it presents some new results in this area. (Author)
