The proof requires first proving another interesting result, a generalization of an embeddding result on symmetric latin squares by L. D. Andersen, following a result by A. Cruse.MathematicsA partial kite system of order n can be embedded in a kite system of order 8n+9Journal ArticleN/A237372700022Q45028
