There exists only 1 normal magic hexagon that uses non repeating consecutive digits for 1 to 19.

The One and Only Magic Hexagon

If We allow digits to repeat we can create something like this hexagon that is made up using consecutive digits from 1 to 3.
Smallest Magic Hexagon
All digits that are the same have been highlighted in the same colour.
If we multiply every digit in the grid by any number we will create a new magic hexagon but the pattern of coloured cells will remain the same.

Here is another pattern that has the most of any repeating single digit, being 1 appearing 10 times. This uses non consecutive digits
most repeated digit magic hexagon
Again if we multiply all the digits by any number we get a new magic hexagon but not a new pattern.

Here are some more examples that all use different patterns that use consecutive digits

Magic sum 10.
magic hexagon sum 10
Magic sum 15.
In this one we nearly have a magic hexagon that has no repeating digits within its magic lines, only the repeating 6s spoil it
magic hexagon sum 15

And here are 2 more examples that use non consecutive digits both with a magic sum of 11.
magic hexagon non consecutive 5
magic hexagon non consecutive 6

And lastly 2 more examples that use larger numbers.

Magic sum 29 magic hexagon sum 29
Magic sum 30.
magic hexagon sum 30

All of the 8 examples have unique patterns.

Question 1
How many unique patterns are there that use repeating consecutive digits?

Question 2
How many unique patterns are there that use repeating non consecutive digits?

Question 3
Is it possible to construct a Magic hexagon that uses repeated digits within the grid but doesn't have any repeated digits within any row columns or diagonal line?.

Please provide a list of all results.

  • $\begingroup$ Must there be a 1 in the grid? Otherwise the search space is too big. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I dont think the search space would be too big without a 1 because there is only a finite number of ways of colouring the grid. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ But the finite number of solutions does not limit the search space. There is an infinity of ways to fill the grid (for a trial solution) with no upper bound, so for that reason I'm passing on Q2 and Q3, where there is no consecutive constraint, and because I found a vast number of solutions to Q1. $\endgroup$

Question 1 How many unique patterns are there that use repeating consecutive digits?

Without setting a limit the search space is vast, so the spread of consecutive digits always starts at 1 here. Even so, there are too many unique solutions to show, so I have posted a summary, showing grids only where there are fewer than 60 solutions.

  • $\begingroup$ Perhaps you can see why I wasn't keen to relax the constraints! $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ If my calculations are correct that gives, 19,579 possible unique patterns if the largest entry in the grid is capped at 19 then that must also include all the non consecutive patterns too?? $\endgroup$

Question 3 Is it possible to construct a Magic hexagon that uses repeated digits within the grid but doesn't have any repeated digits within any row columns or diagonal line?

Assumptions to limit the solutions:
~ the digits must be consecutive
~ each hexagon must begin with 1
I found a number of solutions, few enough to post them all.
