The sum of vectors with the same color in the same square is allways the null vector.

The vectors of ${\displaystyle (\mathbb {Z} /2\mathbb {Z} )^{4}}$ are represented by subsets of {ABCD}.

Example: The green fields in the undermost square (number 18): ^{(zoom in)}

• In terms of sets: ${\displaystyle ~\Delta }$ stands for the symmetric difference:

${\displaystyle \{~~B~~~~\}~\Delta ~\{AB~~~~\}~\Delta ~\{~~B~~D\}~\Delta ~\{AB~~D\}~~~=~~~\{~~~~~~~~\}}$

• In terms of vectors: ${\displaystyle ~\oplus }$ stands for the addition modulo 2 (1⊕1=0):

${\displaystyle {\begin{pmatrix}0\\1\\0\\0\\\end{pmatrix}}\oplus {\begin{pmatrix}1\\1\\0\\0\\\end{pmatrix}}\oplus {\begin{pmatrix}0\\1\\0\\1\\\end{pmatrix}}\oplus {\begin{pmatrix}1\\1\\0\\1\\\end{pmatrix}}~~~=~~~{\begin{pmatrix}0\\0\\0\\0\\\end{pmatrix}}}$

• The colors and gray numbers are taken from File:Boolean partition matrices colored.svg. There are 35 matrices colored only in red, green, yellow and blue.

• The 4-ary Boolean functions marked with red squares in this graphic are also listed in the central matrix in File:Boolean partition matrices top lines by digit sum.svg, where they are displayed by linear bit patterns, instead of squares.

• If the content of this file remains strange to you, you may take a look at the colored squares in File:Jupiter square magic sums numerical.svg, and convince yourself, that fields with the same color in the same square always sum up to 30. ^{(zoom in ...magic sums numerical.svg)} Here it works in the same way, but the elements are vectors, and fields with the same color in the same square always sum up to the null vector.

• These 35 matrices are related to the square model of PG(3,2).

• The red fields in these matrices denote the elements of the 35 Klein four-subgroups of the 16 element group Z₂⁴.
