Abstract

Two latin squares of side n are r-orthogonal if, when superimposed, there are exactly r distinct ordered pairs. In this paper, it is established that for all n ≥ 27, r-orthogonal latin squares of side n exist if and only if n + 2 ≤ r ≤ n 2 — 2 or r ∊ {n, n 2}. An almost complete solution is given for smaller sides.
