We present open challenges in the field of Costas arrays. They are: a) the determination of the number of dots on the main diagonal of a Welch array, and especially the maximal such number for a Welch array of a given order; b) the conjecture that the fraction of Welch arrays without dots on the main diagonal behaves asymptotically as the fraction of permutations without fixed points and hence approaches and c) the determination of the parity populations of Golomb arrays generated in fields of characteristic .
