Complex Hadamard matrices attached to even orthogonal schemes of class 4

Combinatorics 2016-12-06 v1

Abstract

A complex Hadamard matrix is a square matrix W with complex entries of absolute value 1 satisfying WW*=nI, where * stands for the Hermitian transpose and I is the identity matrix of order n. In this paper, we give constructions of complex Hadamard matrices in the Bose-Mesner algebra of a certain 4-class symmetric association scheme. Moreover, we determine the Nomura algebras to show that the resulting matrices are not decomposable into nontrivial generalized tensor products.
