Magic Cubes - The Road to Perfect

This page is intended as a supplement to my primary perfect magic cubes page, which was written before I obtained a lot of additional material on magic cubes.

Magic Cubes. Quarterly Journal of Mathematics, 7, 1866, pp 92-103
As mentioned above, this page is intended as a supplement to my primary perfect magic cubes page with an emphasis on example cubes of a variety of types and orders, with a minimum of descriptive text. I am including the dates of publication along with the cubes I show here. However, please do not conclude that these are the first published of that particular type of cube. For example, Rev. A. H. Frost published examples of all these types in 1866 and 1878! Others, in many cases, also have published prior to the date of the cubes I show. The cubes I choose for examples on this page was determined by variety, and a desire not to use a cube that had been shown on another page on this site. As a review, I will include a brief description of the features of a particular type of cube when I first show that type. All the cubes shown on this page are available in my test spreadsheets, for download from my Downloads page.

The simple magic cube The associated magic cube Dr. C. Planck – simple - 1905 These two order 3 cubes are taken from Dr. Planck’s
order 3 Octahedron (Tesseract) so do not use consecutive numbers.

It is one of the outside cubes from his order 3 tesseract. It is not magic by present standards because only 1 of the 4 triagonals is correct. This condition for the tesseract is consistent with the definition for a magic cube, which does not require the squares within it have correct diagonals. These two cubes, as part of a greater hypercube, have some numbers in common. In this case, one of the three horizontal planes is common to both cubes. [1] C.

Simple, Pantriagonal, and Diagonal cubes can exist in order-6 (the same as order-5). This is a simple magic cube but has the unique feature that if the cube is divided into 27 2x2x2 cubelets, the six faces of each cubelet and 2 of the 6 diagonal planes will each sum the same value. These 27 values step from 382 to 486.

This is number 4 in what is now 6 classes of magic cubes. So far, very little is known of this class of cube. The only ones constructed so far (both by Nakamura) are order 8 (not associated and associated). This cube was discovered by Mitsutoshi Nakamura and named by him in 2004. So there are now 6 classes of magic cubes: Simple, Pantriagonal, Diagonal, Pantriagonal Diagonal (PantriagDiag), Pandiagonal, and Perfect. Perfect (nasik) magic cube Corners of all cubes (within the main cube) of
orders 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 (including wraparound) also sum correctly to
2052. Barnard (1888) confirms this. [2] The Benson Jacoby Perfect Magic Cube - 1981 All 24 planar squares are pandiagonal magic as are also the 6 oblique squares and the seven broken squares parallel to each of these [1][6] for a total of 72 pandiagonal magic squares. The 256 pantriagonals also all sum correctly. Corners of all orders 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 (including wraparound) sub-cubes also sum correctly to 2052 making this cube complete. Also, many other shapes of parallelopipeds.

Squares: Published papers and Supplement, a bound volume at Cornell
University, catalogued as QA 165 R82+pt.1-4. All papers are very
technical. There are NO diagrams. One sect is: A continuation of The
Algebraic Theory of Diabolic Magic Squares on typewritten pages numbered
729 – 753, (diabolic cubes pp 736-753). Order 9 is the smallest possible for a perfect magic cube that is also associated. [1] Soni Order-9 Pantriagonal Magic Cube - 2001? This must be classed as a pantriagonal magic cube,
although all 9 horizontal and all 9 vertical back to front planes are
pandiagonal magic squares. The vertical squares parallel to the sides have
incorrect diagonals, so are not magic. The 6 oblique squares are also
pandiagonal magic. I generated this cube from Abhinav Soni ‘s program, HyperMagic Cubes.exe.

from 0 to 728 (instead of 1 to 729) so the magic constant is 3276 (instead
of 3285). A.H. Frost published a Perfect
order 9 magic cube in 1878. However, it did not use consecutive
numbers. Order-10 PandiagDiag, Pandiagonal, and
Nasik
(perfect) cubes are impossible. J. R. Hendricks Millennium 10 x 10 x 10 simple magic cube - 2000 This is a simple magic cube with all rows, columns, pillars, and 4 main triagonals correct. It has an order-5 semi-magic cube in each octant. In each case, 1 of the 4 triagonals of the inlaid cube is incorrect. The two diagonals for each of the 30 planar squares sum to 4130 and 5880. It follows that the 4 oblique squares with incorrect row totals have 5 rows each that total 4130 and 5 rows that total 5880. The two oblique squares with incorrect column totals have 5 columns each with each of these totals. This cube contains no magic squares. This cube was privately distributed by John Hendricks in December 2000 as a ‘Millennium’ magic cube. Following this listing, I will include one of the inlaid semi-magic order 5 cubes.

[1] Howard mentions that order 11 is the smallest
possible for a prime order perfect magic cube. (we know that perfect cubes
can exist for non-prime orders as small as 8). Top II
