Equivalence classes of Latin squares and nets in P 2
Annales de la Faculté des sciences de Toulouse : Mathématiques, Serie 6, Volume 23 (2014) no. 2, pp. 335-351.

The fundamental combinatorial structure of a net in P 2 is its associated set of mutually orthogonal Latin squares. We define equivalence classes of sets of orthogonal Latin squares by label equivalences of the lines of the corresponding net in P 2 . Then we count these equivalence classes for small cases. Finally we prove that the realization spaces of these classes in P 2 are empty to show some non-existence results for 4-nets in P 2 .

La structure combinatoire fondamentale d’un filet dans P 2 est donnée par l’ensemble des carrés latins orthogonaux associé. Nous définissons des classes d’équivalence de carrés latins orthogonaux a l’aide de classes d’équivalence des lignes apparaisant dans le filet de P 2 . Nous comptons le nombre de classes d’équivalence pour certains exemples de carrés petits. Finalement, nous montrons que les espaces de réalisations de ces classes pour n=4 et k=4,5,6 sont vides et nous en déduisons que les filets correspondants n’existent pas.
