A339641 Number of main classes of Brown's diagonal Latin squares of order 2n. 2

%I #40 Aug 08 2023 22:22:01

%S 0,1,2,173

%N Number of main classes of Brown's diagonal Latin squares of order 2n.

%C A Brown's diagonal Latin square is a horizontally symmetric row-inverse or vertically symmetric column-inverse diagonal Latin square. Diagonal Latin squares of this type have interesting properties, for example, a large number of transversals.

%C Plain symmetry diagonal Latin squares do not exist for odd orders, so a(2n+1)=0.
