Continuation of New Méziriac Knight-Break Pendulum Method (Part IV)
These new Méziriac squares, which I will label PMn* (center cell#) [LD or RU,small or
large arc,(n1U,n2R)] where PMn* signifies a small or large arc pendulum move. nxn
is a Méziriac square with a certain cell number, breaking in knight fashion down or to
the left depending where on the diagonal the opening 1 resides on.
n1 or n2 are the variable numbers a or b shown below.
This set of squares consists of six groups of small and large arc pendulum squares according to the following table:
where a = ½(n -3) and b = ½(n -1) and n
is the order of the square.
| Group C | Group D |
| I (small arc) | (aU,bL) | I (small arc) |
(bU,aL) |
| II (large arc) | (bU,aL) | II (large arc) |
(aU,bL) |
| III (large arc) | (aU,bL) | III (large arc) |
(bU,aL) |
Construction of 5x5 Knight-Break Méziriac Small Arc Pendulum Magic Squares
Group IC
- To generate the semi-magic square, PMK5* 14 [RU,small arc,(1U,2L)]
, place a 1 into the center of the first row of a 5x5 square and fill in empty cells by advancing diagonally first up right, then down left continuously switching
until blocked by a previous number.
- Move in knight fashion one cell up and two cells left.
- Repeat the process until the square is filled, as shown below in squares 1-5.
