Polyhedral Cones of Magic Cubes and Squares
Using computational algebraic geometry techniques and Hilbert bases of polyhedral cones we derive explicit formulas and generating functions for the number of magic squares and magic cubes. Magic cubes and squares are very popular combinatorial objects (see [2, 15, 17] and their references). A magic square is a square matrix whose entries are nonnegative integers and whose row sums, column sums...
متن کاملBordered magic squares: Elements for a comprehensive approach
General methods for the construction of magic squares of any order have been searched for centuries. Several " standard strategies " have been found for this purpose, such as the " knight movement " , or the construction of bordered magic squares, which played an important role in the development of general methods. What we try to do here is to give a general and comprehensive approach to the c...
متن کاملCreating Semi-Magic, Magic and Extra Magic n× n Squares when n is Odd
We define a simple algorithm for creating large numbers of semi-magic n× n squares when n is odd. Special cases of the algorithm can also be used to easily create magic and extra magic (or panmagic) n× n squares when n is odd. The algorithm can also create extremely magic n × n squares when n ≥ 5 is prime. These extremely magic n × n squares have n! standard magic n-element subsets, and these n...
متن کاملJ an 2 00 5 The Number of “ Magic ” Squares , Cubes , and Hypercubes 1
Magic squares have turned up throughout history, some in a mathematical context, others in philosophical or religious contexts. According to legend, the first magic square was discovered in China by an unknown mathematician sometime before the first century A.D. It was a magic square of order three thought to have appeared on the back of a turtle emerging from a river. Other magic squares surfa...
