COMMENTS

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}.

EXAMPLE
|
For n=7 the number of orthogonal diagonal Latin squares that a diagonal Latin square of order 7 may have is 0, 1, or 3. Since there are 3 distinct values, a(7)=3.
