The Existence and Application of Strongly Idempotent Self-orthogonal Row Latin Magic Arrays

Let N = {0, 1, ···, n-1}. A strongly idempotent self-orthogonal row Latin magic array of order n（SISORLMA（n） for short） based on N is an n × n array M satisfying the following properties：（1） each row of M is a permutation of N, and at least one column is not a permutation of N;（2） the sums of the n numbers in every row and every column are the same;（3） M is orthogonal to its transpose;（4） the main diagonal and the back diagonal of M are 0, 1, ···, n-1 from left to right. In this paper, it is proved that an SISORLMA（n）exists if and only if n ？ {2, 3}. As an application, it is proved that a nonelementary rational diagonally ordered magic square exists if and only if n ？ {2, 3}, and a rational diagonally ordered magic square exists if and only if n ≠2.

Performance enhancement of partially shaded solar PV array using novel shade dispersion technique

Solar photo voltaic array （SPVA） generates a smaller amount of power than the standard rating of the panel due to the partial shading effect. Since the modules of the arrays receive different solar irradiations, the P-V characteristics ofphotovoltaic （PV） arrays contain multiple peaks or local peaks. This paper presents an innovative method （magic square） in order to increase the generated power by configuring the modules of a shaded photo- voltaic array. In this approach, the physical location of the modules in the total cross tied （TCT） connected in the solar PV array is rearranged based on the magic square arrangement pattern. This connection is done without altering any electrical configurations of the modules in the PV array. This method can distribute the shading effect over the entire PV array, without concentrating on any row of modules and can achieve global peaks. For different types of shading patterns, the output power of the solar PV array with the proposed magic square configuration is compared with the traditional configurations and the performance is calculated. This paper presents a new reconfiguration technique for solar PV arrays, which increases the PV power under different shading conditions. The proposed technique facilitates the distribution of the effect of shading over the entire array, thereby, reducing the mismatch losses caused by partial shading. The theoretical calculations are tested through simulations in Matlab/ Simulink to validate the results. A comparison of power loss for different types of topologies under different types of shading patterns for a 4 × 4 array is also explained.

Representation theory of Dynkin quivers. Three contributions

The representations of the Dynkin quivers and the corresponding Euclidean quivers are treated in many books. These notes provide three building blocks for dealing with representations of Dynkin （and Euclidean） quivers. They should be helpful as part of a direct approach to study representations of quivers, and they shed some new light on properties of Dynkin and Euclidean quivers.
