2. The Magic Square Record
Includes short description of a magic square, rules for trying to break a magic square record and all the records between 1975 and now.
http://www.recordholders.org/en/records/magic.html
The Largest Magic Square
A magic square is a quadratic scheme of numbers which adds up vertically, horizontally and diagonally to the same sum. Example: (sum is 15 for each row, column and diagonal) There is no such thing like a record for finding the world's largest magic square. There are well-known algorithms for constructing an arbitrarily large magic square. It is easy to compute very large magic squares. However, the records in this list are for printing or writing magic squares. You can read more about magic squares at forum.swarthmore.edu/alejandre/magic.square.html Interesting records for multi-magic squares (not only the sum of the numbers but also the sum of their squares, cubes, etc. must be the same) can be found at www.multimagie.com BOOKS:
The Zen of Magic Squares, Circles and Stars
Solving Magic Squares
The Rules
  • The magic square must be written/printed on paper. It is not sufficient just to calculate it by a computer. It is allowed to compose the magic square from many sheets of paper, but they MUST lay together to form one scheme of numbers. This scheme must be a square, not just any rectangle. To verify the sums in each row/column and diagonal a test run of the used computer program should be made under supervision of a computer/ mathematics specialist who can prove that the program is correct.

Welcome to the Math Square. The directions are simple. In each square put numbers until the total for the row (if you add up all the numbers) is equal to the value next to the row. Make sure you get the right values in each column and in the diagonal direction too! To see what it looks like, look below Note: This was called "Magic Square", but the name has been changed since it was not really a "magic square" where all rows, columns and diagonals added up to the same number. We offer three versions of this game. The first just uses numbers 1-9, the second lets you enter the starting number and then uses the next 8 numbers, and the third uses a set of random digits between 1-99. In all cases the center digit is filled in for you. No digit is used twice. We have added a nice feature that shows the numbers that are used in the Math Square. If you want to play the hard version really hard, play it without seeing the numbers. If you want to play it easier, turn on the numbers (they will be displayed above the game). Have fun!

Magic squares received their name because there are so many relationships between the sums of the numbers filling the squares. Students often believe that "mathematics" was "written" by one person. In these pages you will find that the magic square mathematical game has existed throughout history and in many different parts of the world. Math is all around us and your mind will see it when you're ready!

In magic squares, each row and each column and each diagonal adds up to the same number. But look at the green markings at the top of this page! This special magic square adds up to the same number in all of these ways. (Don't take our word for it! Use your mental math and see for yourself!) It is called a "pan-magic square." We didn't invent this magic square. A famous German artist, Albrecht Dürer, included it in an engraving called "Melancholia" in the year 1514! The most magic thing of all is that you can see the year "1514" in the middle of the bottom row.

Freudenthal-Tits Magic Square:
Here are some approaches from other points of view: References The E6-E7-E8 structures are based on the Freudenthal-Tits Magic Square , which shows relationships between division algebras and matrix algebras. In particular: D ivision algebras define the rows of the Magic Square; J ordan algebras define the columns of the Magic Square; and Lie algebras Lie algebras L formed by the rule: L = Der(A) + (A0xJ0) + Der(J) where Der means derivation, + is direct sum, x is tensor product, A0 are the pure imaginary elements of A, R0=S0, C0=S1, Q0=S3, O0=S7, (here Sn means the algebra of tangent vectors to an n-dim sphere, and S0,S1,S3 are Lie algebras Geoffrey Dixon shows how to construct F4, E6, E7, and E8 from a slightly different point of view
  • F4 = Spin(8) + SO(3) + 3x7 = 28 + 3 + 3x7 = 52 E6 = Spin(8) + SU(3) + 6x7 = 28 + 8 + 6x7 = 78 E7 = Spin(8) + Sp(3) + 12x7 = 28 + 21 + 12x7 = 133 E8 = Spin(8) + F4 + 24x7 = 28 + 52 + 24x7 = 248

Includes a 25x25 magic square, properties of it and Maple and PostScript files for finding more properties of it.

A very, very magic square
The following 25x25 matrix is a magic square.It has the following properties:
  • Then entries of the square are the numbers 1,2,...,625=25x25.
  • All its column sums, row sums and both diagonal sums are all equal to 7825=25x(1+625)/2.
  • If the square is divided up in 25 5x5 squares, then all those little squares are magic too: they all have row, column and diagonal sums equal 1565=5x(1+625)/2.
  • If one squares all entries in in the square, the square remains magic: all row,column and diagonal sums are equal to 3263025.
Maybe you will find out even more properties....
Here is a maple program to generate this 25x25 square. There is also a postscript file magicsqr.ps and a dvi-file magicsqr.dvi of the magic square. Back to my homepage

A magic square is an arrangement of the numbers from to n^2 (n-squared) in an n x n matrix, with each number occurring exactly once, and such that the sum of the entries of any row, any column, or any main diagonal is the same. It is not hard to show that this sum must be n(n^2+1)/2

Magic Square
A magic square consists of the distinct positive integers such that the sum of the n numbers in any horizontal, vertical, or main diagonal line is always the same number (Kraitchik 1952, p. 142; Andrews 1960, p. 1; Gardner 1961, p. 130; Madachy 1979, p. 84; Benson and Jacobi 1981, p. 3; Ball and Coxeter 1987, p. 193), known as the magic constant
If every number in a magic square is subtracted from another magic square is obtained called the complementary magic square. A square consisting of consecutive numbers starting with 1 is sometimes known as a "normal" magic square. The unique normal square of order three was known to the ancient Chinese, who called it the Lo Shu . A version of the order 4 magic square with the numbers 15 and 14 in adjacent middle columns in the bottom row is called . Magic squares of order 3 through 8 are shown above. The magic constant for an n th order general magic square starting with an integer A and with entries in an increasing arithmetic series with difference D between terms is
