Taneja https://inderjtaneja.wordpress.com; https://numbers-magic.com Different Types and Aspects of Magic Squares of Order 16, Zenodo, November 06, 2025, pp. 1-66, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17543834 1 Introduction In the previous works [21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27], the author worked with block-wise constructions of magic squares. The work is from the orders 8 to 45. In each case, all the possibilities are considered. These possibilities are based on divisions of magic squares. The magic sums of order nof consecutive numbers from 1 to n2is given by Sn×n:= n×(1 + n2) 2, n ≥3.(1) This formula is applied to all order magic squares. Based on this formula we shall brink blocks for the block-wise magic squares. That is, whenever is possible, we shall try to bring blocks of equal sum magic squares. In some cases, they are magic,semi-magic,pandiagonal, etc. When the question come to bimagic squares, in some cases, we have semi-bimagic squares. On the other hand the idea of bordered magic squares is well explained in the work by H.White [6, 7]. Few results in this direction can be seen in author’s work [28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33]. In some case, the magic rectangles are also used to write it in different styles. Most of the author’s work on magic squares is summarized below in details according to topic: 1. Digital Fonts: Upside-down and Mirror Looking. 2. Two Digits Universal Magic Squares. 3. Different Digits Magic Squares. 4. Pythagorean Triples Magic Squares. 5. Block-Wise Magic Squares. 6. Selfie and Palindromic Type Magic Squares. 7. Block Bordered Magic Squares. 8. Block-Wise Bordered Magic Squares. 9. Magic Crosses, Letters and Numbers. 10. Cornered Magic Squares. 11. Single-Digit Bordered Magic Squares. 12. Double-Digit Bordered Magic Squares. 13. Multiple-Digit Bordered Magic Squares. 14. Striped Magic Squares. 3 Inder J. Taneja https://inderjtaneja.wordpress.com; https://numbers-magic.com Different Types and Aspects of Magic Squares of Order 16, Zenodo, November 06, 2025, pp. 1-66, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17543834 15. Upside-down and Mirror Looking. 16. Water reflection. The aim of this work is to write magic squares of order 16 in different ways and styles using the aspects of blocks, bordered,block-bordered and magic rectangles,corner-type,single-digit,double-digit, etc. More details on these works on magic squares can be seen in author’s web-sites: (i) https://numbers-magic.com/?p=668 (ii) https://inderjtaneja.wordpress.com/2019/06/27/publications-magic-squares/ 2 Different Types of Magic Squares According to Equation (1), the magic sum of order 16 is given by S16×16 := 16 ×(1 + 162) 2= 2056. We can write, 16 := 42= 4 ×4. This gives the possibility of blocks of order 4 and 8. Let’s see division of 2056 by 4 and 2: (i)2056 4= 514 =⇒equal blocks of order 4; (ii)2056 2= 1024 =⇒equal blocks of order 8. Below are few examples of different types of magic squares of order 16. 4 Inder J.

Out of these five, three of them are with fraction numbers entries. 3.4.1 Uniformity Property Example 3.4. Ablock-wise pandiagonal magic square of order 16 for consecutive odd numbers entries {1,3,5, ..., 509,511} is given by 34 Inder J. Taneja https://inderjtaneja.wordpress.com; https://numbers-magic.com Different Types and Aspects of Magic Squares of Order 16, Zenodo, November 06, 2025, pp. 1-66, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17543834 Example 3.5. Ablock-wise pandiagonal magic square of order 16 for consecutive fraction numbers entries {257/2,259/2,...,763/2,767/2}is given by Both the Examples 3.4 and 3.5 are with equal magic sums. The blocks of order 4 are pandiagonal magic squares with equal magic sums. See the details below: S16×16 = 4096 = 163;T256 := 16 ×4096 = 65536 = 2562= 164 S4×4:= 1024; T16 := 4 ×1024 = 4096 = 642. The Examples 3.4 and 3.5 also satisfy the uniformity property, i.e., D16,162,163,164E. 35 Inder J. Taneja https://inderjtaneja.wordpress.com; https://numbers-magic.com Different Types and Aspects of Magic Squares of Order 16, Zenodo, November 06, 2025, pp. 1-66, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17543834 3.4.2 Pythagorean Triple Example 3.6.

Taneja https://inderjtaneja.wordpress.com; https://numbers-magic.com Different Types and Aspects of Magic Squares of Order 16, Zenodo, November 06, 2025, pp. 1-66, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17543834 4 Upside-Down, Mirror-Looking and Water Reflection Let’s consider the following image: Source: https://www.mathsisfun.com/definitions/vertical-flip.html From the above image we understand that horizontal flip is same as mirror looking image and the vertical flip is same as water reflection image. The same terms are given in paint brush of microsoft. Let’s see how it works on numbers. Let’s consider following 9 digits written in digital form: •180oRotation In this case, the readable numbers are 0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 8 and 9 where the number 6 becomes 9 and 9 as 6. Thus the survival numbers after 180orotation are 0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 8 and 9. Sometimes we call them as upside-down numbers. •Mirror Looking It is same as horizontal flip as describe above. In this case, we have 39 Inder J. Taneja https://inderjtaneja.wordpress.com; https://numbers-magic.com Different Types and Aspects of Magic Squares of Order 16, Zenodo, November 06, 2025, pp. 1-66, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17543834 In this case, the readable numbers are 0, 1, 2, 5 and 8, where 2 becomes 5 and 5 as 2. Thus the survival numbers after horizontal flip are 0, 1, 2, 5 and 8. Sometimes we call them as mirror-looking numbers. •Water Reflection It is same as vertical flip as describe above. In this case, we have In this case, the readable numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 8, where 2 becomes 5 and 5 as 2. Thus the survival numbers after vertical flip are 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 8. For the first time we call these numbers as water reflection or water reflexive numbers. We observe that the numbers 0, 1, 2, 5 and 8 are in all the three situations, i.e., these are upside-down,mirrorlooking and water reflexive. We call them as universal numbers provided they are written in digital form. There left only one number 3. It is only water reflexive. While the numbers 6 and 9 are only upside-down. There is a lot of work by author on upside-down and mirror-looking numbers. This work is concentrated only towards magic squares having water reflexive numbers, i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 8. The numbers 0, 1, 2, 5 and 8 are already studied previously. This work brings magic squares of order 14 to 16 specially in number 3 along with 0, 1, 2, 5 and 8. 4.1 Upside-Down and Mirror Looking This section brings magic and bimagic squares of order 16 written in such way that, if we make 180orotation and/or see in the mirror, still we are able to read the entries again resulting in magic squares. It is possible only with the digits 0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 8 and 9 written in digital forms. Example 4.1. The magic squares of order 16 for the digits (1,2,5,8) is given by 40 Inder J.
