On the use of pairwise balanced designs and closure spaces in the construction of structures of degree at least 3

We prove that a set of <em>v-2</em> symmetric idempotent latin squares of order <em>v</em>, such that no two of them agree in a off-diagonal position, exists for all odd <em>v>>0</em>. We describe how the techniques used in the proof relate to techniques use...
