This volume contains the invited papers presented at the British Combinatorial Conference, held at the University of Surrey in July 1991. As in previous years, the speakers were mathematicians of the highest quality who spanned the subject area, and

It is well known that G. Tarry [1] was the first to publish a proof that the famous thirty-six officers problem posed by L. Euler [2] in 1779 has no solution but it appears to be less well known that he was the first to devise a systematic method of

We show that a Buchsteiner quasigroup is necessarily a loop but that there exist proper conjugacy-closed quasigroups. This completes the investigation of quasigroups which satisfy identities corresponding to ones for loops obtainable by nuclear amalg

Smallest defining setsA standard Sudoku square is a 9 × 9 latin square in which each of the nine 3 × 3 subsquares into which it can be separated contains each of the integers 1 to 9 exactly once.A current problem is to complete such a square when o

A topic of current interest is that of finding defining sets (preferably smallest defining sets) for various combinatorial structures such as latin squares and block designs, so it seemed interesting (though of no practical use) to try to solve the s

We give a new and simple criterion for a Latin square to be group-based and we provide easy-to-implement tests for whether a given element of a loop lies in any one of its three nuclei.

We investigate the construction of sets of t latin squares of a given non-prime-power order q which are as close as possible to being a mutually orthogonal set. The total number of ordered pairs which do not occur when the squares are juxtaposed in p

We determine the special properties which an orthomorphism or near orthomorphism of a cyclic group must have if it is to define a finite field instead of a (non-associative) cyclic neofield.

We propose a simple and flexible authentication scheme applicable for use with both binary and nonbinary messages and we show that, among the set of all possible messages of assigned length, all possible signatures occur with equal probability: that
