%N a(n) is the number of distinct numbers of orthogonal diagonal mates that a diagonal Latin squares of order n can have.
%C a(n) <= A287695(n) + 1.
%C a(n) <= A287764(n).
%C a(10) >= 10. It seems that a(10) = 10 due to long computational experiments within the Gerasim@Home volunteer distributed computing project did not reveal the existence of diagonal Latin squares of order 10 with the number of orthogonal diagonal Latin squares different from {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10}.
%C a(11) >= 112, a(12) >= 5079. - _Eduard I. Vatutin_, Nov 02 2021, updated Jan 23 2023
