  • Mathematics of Sudoku I
    Mathematics of Sudoku I Bertram Felgenhauer Frazer Jarvis∗ January 25, 2006 Introduction Sudoku puzzles became extremely popular in Britain from late 2004. Sudoku, or Su Doku, is a Japanese word (or phrase) meaning something like Number Place. The idea of the puzzle is extremely simple; the solver is faced with a 9 × 9 grid, divided into nine 3 × 3 blocks: In some of these boxes, the setter puts some of the digits 1–9; the aim of the solver is to complete the grid by filling in a digit in every box in such a way that each row, each column, and each 3 × 3 box contains each of the digits 1–9 exactly once. It is a very natural question to ask how many Sudoku grids there can be. That is, in how many ways can we fill in the grid above so that each row, column and box contains the digits 1–9 exactly once. In this note, we explain how we first computed this number. This was the first computation of this number; we should point out that it has been subsequently confirmed using other (faster!) methods. First, let us notice that Sudoku grids are simply special cases of Latin squares; remember that a Latin square of order n is an n × n square containing each of the digits 1,...,n in every row and column. The calculation of the number of Latin squares is itself a difficult problem, with no general formula known. The number of Latin squares of sizes up to 11 × 11 have been worked out (see references [1], [2] and [3] for the 9 × 9, 10 × 10 and 11 × 11 squares), and the methods are broadly brute force calculations, much like the approach we sketch for Sudoku grids below.

  • THE MATHEMATICS BEHIND SUDOKU Sudoku Is One of the More Interesting and Potentially Addictive Number Puzzles. It's Modern Vers
    THE MATHEMATICS BEHIND SUDOKU Sudoku is one of the more interesting and potentially addictive number puzzles. It’s modern version (adapted from the Latin Square of Leonard Euler) was invented by the American Architect Howard Ganz in 1979 and brought to worldwide attention through promotion efforts in Japan. Today the puzzle appears weekly in newspapers throughout the world. The puzzle basis is a square n x n array of elements for which only a few of the n2 elements are specified beforehand. The idea behind the puzzle is to find the value of the remaining elements following certain rules. The rules are- (1)-Each row and column of the n x n square matrix must contain each of n numbers only once so that the sum in each row or column of n numbers always equals- n n(n 1) k k 1 2 (2)-The n x n matrix is broken up into (n/b)2 square sub-matrixes, where b is an integer divisor of n. Each sub-matrix must also contain all n elements just once and the sum of the elements in each sub-matrix must also equal n(n+1)/2. It is our purpose here to look at the mathematical aspects behind Sudoku solutions. To make things as simple as possible, we will start with a 4 x 4 Sudoku puzzle of the form- 1 3 1 4 3 2 Here we have 6 elements given at the outset and we are asked to find the remaining 10 elements shown as dashes. There are four rows and four columns each plus 4 sub- matrixes of 2 x 2 size which read- 1 3 4 3 A B C and D 1 2 Any element in the 4 x 4 square matrix is identified by the symbol ai,j ,where i is the row number and j the column number.

Goodwin University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA P. N. Johnson-Laird Princeton University, NJ, USA Sudoku puzzles, which are popular worldwide, require individuals to infer the missing digits in a 9 6 9arrayaccordingtothegeneralrulethateverydigit from 1 to 9 must occur once in each row, in each column, and in each of the 3- by-3 boxes in the array. We present a theory of how individuals solve these puzzles. It postulates that they rely solely on pure deductions, and that they spontaneously acquire various deductive tactics, which differ in their difficulty depending on their ‘‘relational complexity’’, i.e., the number of constraints on which they depend. A major strategic shift is necessary to acquire tactics for more difficult puzzles: solvers have to keep track of possible digits in a cell. We report three experiments corroborating this theory. We also discuss their implications for theories of reasoning that downplay the role of deduction in everyday reasoning. Keywords: Deduction; Problem solving; Reasoning; Inferential strategies.

    The Mathematics of Sudoku Tom Davis [email protected] http://www.geometer.org/mathcircles (Preliminary) June 5, 2006 1 Introduction Sudoku is a (sometimes addictive) puzzle presented on a square grid that is usually 9 × 9, but is sometimes 16 × 16 or other sizes. We will consider here only the 9 × 9 case, although most of what follows can be extended to larger puzzles. Sudoku puzzles can be found in many daily newspapers, and there are thousands of references to it on the internet. Most puzzles are ranked as to difficulty, but the rankings vary from puzzle designer to puzzle designer. Sudoku is an abbreviation for a Japanese phrase meaning ”the digits must remain single”, and it was in Japan that the puzzle first became popular. The puzzle is also known as ”Number Place”. Sudoku (although it was not originally called that) was apparently invented by Howard Garns in 1979. It was first published by Dell Magazines (which continues to do so), but now is available in hundreds of publications. At the time of publication of this article, sudoku 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 is very popular, but it is of course difficult to predict whether it will remain so. It does have a 4 8 many features of puzzles that remain popular: b puzzles are available of all degrees of difficulty, 9 4 6 7 the rules are very simple, your ability to solve c 5 6 1 4 them improves with time, and it is the sort of puzzle where the person solving it makes con- d 2 1 6 5 tinuous progress toward a solution, as is the case e 5 8 7 9 4 1 with crossword puzzles.

    SUDOQ | A QUANTUM VARIANT OF THE POPULAR GAME ION NECHITA AND JORDI PILLET Abstract. We introduce SudoQ, a quantum version of the classical game Sudoku. Allowing the entries of the grid to be (non-commutative) projections instead of integers, the solution set of SudoQ puzzles can be much larger than in the classical (commutative) setting. We introduce and analyze a randomized algorithm for computing solutions of SudoQ puzzles. Finally, we state two important conjectures relating the quantum and the classical solutions of SudoQ puzzles, corroborated by analytical and numerical evidence. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. Quantum grids, squares, and the SudoQ game3 3. Classical grids and squares5 4. SudoQ solutions7 5. A Sinkhorn-like algorithm for SudoQ9 6. Numerical experiments 11 7. Mixed SudoQ 12 8. Application: quantum Sudoku code 13 9. Conclusion 14 References 15 1. Introduction The Sudoku puzzle has become nowadays one of the most popular pen-and-paper solitaire games. Its origin can be traced back to 1892, in the pages of the French monarchist daily newspaper \Le Si`ecle",where a very similar puzzle was proposed to the readers. The Sudoku game can be seen as an extension of the older Latin square game, already introduced by Euler in the 18th century. The rules of the latter game are simple: you have to fill in a n × n grid such that each row and each column contains a permutation of the elements of f1; 2; :::; ng. A Sudoku puzzle is a n2 × n2 arXiv:2005.10862v1 [quant-ph] 21 May 2020 Latin square with the supplementary constraints that each n × n sub-square must also contain a permutation of f1; 2; :::; n2g; the most popular version of the game, usually found in newspapers, assumes n = 3, presenting the puzzle as a 9 × 9 partially filled grid.

    Internal Report 2010–4 March 2010 Universiteit Leiden Opleiding Informatica On Jigsaw Sudoku Puzzles and Related Topics Johan de Ruiter BACHELORSCRIPTIE Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) Leiden University Niels Bohrweg 1 2333 CA Leiden The Netherlands On Jigsaw Sudoku Puzzles and Related Topics Bachelor Thesis Johan de Ruiter, [email protected] Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) Leiden University, The Netherlands March 15, 2010 Abstract Using memoization and various other optimization techniques, the number of dissections of the n × n square into n polyominoes of size n is computed for n ≤ 8. On this task our method outperforms Donald Knuth’s Algorithm X with Dancing Links. The number of jigsaw sudoku puzzle solutions is computed for n ≤ 7. For every jigsaw sudoku puzzle polyomino cover with n ≤ 6 the size of its smallest critical sets is determined. Furthermore it is shown that for every n ≥ 4 there exists a polyomino cover that does not allow for any sudoku puzzle solution. We give a closed formula for the num- ber of possible ways to fill the border of an n × n square with num- bers while obeying Latin square constraints. We define a cannibal as a nonempty hyperpolyomino that disconnects its exterior from its interior, where the interior is exactly the size of the hyperpolyomino itself, and we present the smallest found cannibals in two and three dimensions. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 4 2 Dissecting the square 6 2.1 Generating the tiles . .6 2.2 Areas modulo n ..........................7 2.2.1 Useful holes . .8 2.2.2 Other useless areas .
