14.0     Special Magic Squares, Prime Numbers 14.13    Consecutive Primes (4) 14.13.31 Simple Magic Squares (12 x 12) Prime Number Simple Magic Squares of order 12 can be constructed with the Generator Principle, as applied in previous sections. Suitable Generators (12 Magic Series) can be constructed semi-automatically (ref. CnstrGen12). A possible Semi Magic Square and resulting Simple Magic Square are shown below, for the smallest consecutive prime numbers {89 ... 991} for which an Order 12 Simple Magic Square exists (MC12 = 6188):

The Generator Method has been applied for miscellaneous Magic Sums, for which the first occurring Simple Magic Squares are shown in Attachment 14.13.31. Each square shown corresponds with numerous Prime Number Magic Squares with the same Magic Sum and variable values. 14.13.32 Simple Magic Squares (12 x 12)          Single Square Inlays (Lower Order) Order 12 Simple Magic Squares with single square inlay(s) of lower order can be constructed with the generator method as discussed in detail in Section 14.13.22 through Section 14.13.26. Examples of order 3 through 7 square inlays, for the consecutive prime numbers {89 ... 991} with the related Magic Sum s12 = 6188 are shown below:

The order 3, 4 and 5 Square Inlays might be moved along the Main Diagonal (top/left to bottom/right) by means of row and column permutations. The order 6 Concentric Pan Magic Square (Inlay) with Associated Center Square has been discussed in detail in Section 14.4.2. The square(s) shown above correspond with numerous Prime Number Magic Squares with the same Magic Sum and variable values, which can be obtained by selecting other aspects of the inlays and variation of the borders. 14.13.33 Simple Magic Squares (12 x 12)          Order 3 Square Inlays (4 ea) Comparable with the method discussed in Section 14.13.27 it is possible to construct Order 12 Simple Magic Squares with four order 3 Simple Magic Square Inlays.

Miscellaneous (main) diagonal sets are possible for both square types. Type 1 (left), each resulting square corresponds with 84 = 4096 solutions, which can be obtained by selecting other aspects of the four inlays. Type 2 (right), each resulting square corresponds with 84 * (3!)4 = 5.308.416 solutions, which can be obtained by selecting other aspects of the four inlays and variation of the border (window). The order 3 Square Inlays of Type 2 might be moved along the Main Diagonals by means of row and column permutations (1, 2 or 3 positions).

Miscellaneous (main) diagonal sets are possible for both square types. Type 1 (left), each resulting square corresponds with 3844 = 21.743.271.936 solutions, which can be obtained by selecting other aspects of the four inlays. Type 2 (right), each resulting square corresponds with 3844 * (4!)4 = 7,214 1015 solutions, which can be obtained by selecting other aspects of the four inlays and variation of the border (window). The order 4 Square Inlays of Type 2 might be moved along the Main Diagonals by means of row and column permutations (1 or 2 positions). Potential order 4 Pan Magic Square Inlays (unique) for the consecutive prime numbers (89 ... 991), resulting in numerous valid sets of four, are shown in Attachment 14.13.34. 14.13.35 Simple Magic Squares (12 x 12)          Order 3 Semi Magic Square Inlays (10 ea) It has been investigated whether Prime Number Magic Squares composed of 16 order 3 (Semi) Magic Squares with different Magic Sums, as discussed in Section 14.21.5, can be constructed for Consecutive Prime Numbers.

It should be noted that for Bordered Magic Squares the reversed transformation is not necessarily possible because of the bottom-left / top-right Main Diagonal. The order 8 Simple Magic Sub Square applied above is composed of four each order 4 Simple Magic Squares with Magic Sum s4 = 2164. Each square shown corresponds with numerous Prime Number Magic Squares with the same Magic Sum(s) and variable values. 14.13.39 Composed Magic Squares (12 x 12)          Order 3 and 9 Magic Sub Squares When the Magic Sum s12 is a multiple of 12 (e.g. 6492), order 12 (Semi) Magic Squares might be composed of: One 9th order Simple Magic Corner Square with Magic Sum s9 = 9 * s12 / 12 = 4869 (top/left) One 3th order Simple Magic Corner Square with Magic Sum s3 = 3 * s12 / 12 = 1623 (bottom/right) Two Magic Rectangles order 3 x 9 with s3 = 1623 and s9 = 4869 An example is shown below for the consecutive prime numbers {107 ... 1019} with the related Magic Sums mentioned above.

The Order 9 Simple Magic Sub Square (s9 = 4869), constructed with the Generator Principle as applied in previous sections, corresponds with 8 * 24/2 * (4!) = 8 * 192 = 1536 Sub Squares. The resulting square corresponds consequently with 8 * 1536 * (3! * 6!)2 = 2,293 1011 Prime Number Magic Squares with the same Magic Sum(s) and variable values. 14.13.40 Summary The obtained results regarding the miscellaneous types of Prime Number Magic Squares as deducted and discussed in previous sections are summarized in following table:
