Working in the general context of "modules with an additive dimension," we complete the determination of the minimal dimension of a faithful Alt(n)-module and classify those modules in three of the exceptional cases: 2-dimensional…
In this paper, we study approximate Hadamard matrices, that is, well-conditioned $n\times n$ matrices with all entries in $\{\pm1\}$. We show that the smallest-possible condition number goes to $1$ as $n\to\infty$, and we identify some…
Two skew Hadamard matrices are considered {\sf SH}-equivalent if they are similar by a signed permutation matrix. This paper determines the number of {\sf SH}-inequivalent skew Hadamard matrices of order $36$ for some types. We also study…
We report some group divisible designs with block size five, including types $6^{15}$ and $10^{15}$. As a consequence we are able to extend the known spectrum for 5-GDDs of type $g^u$.
We classify binary completely regular codes of length $m$ with minimum distance $\delta$ for $(m,\delta)=(12,6)$ and $(11,5)$. We prove that such codes are unique up to equivalence, and in particular, are equivalent to certain Hadamard…
Solving a problem of Diestel and Pott, we construct a large class of infinite matroids. These can be used to provide counterexamples against the natural extension of the Well-quasi-ordering-Conjecture to infinite matroids and to show that…
We give a precise asymptotic formula for the number of $n\times 4t$ partial Hadamard matrices in the regimes $t/n^3\to\infty$ and $t/n^3\to\Theta$ for sufficiently large fixed $\Theta$. This strengthens earlier results of de~Launey and…
Let $p_{\{3, 3\}}(n)$ denote the number of $3$-regular partitions in three colours. In a very recent paper, da Silva and Sellers studied certain arithmetic properties of $p_{\{3, 3\}}(n)$. They further conjectured four Ramanujan-like…
Consider the set of scalars $\alpha$ for which the $\alpha$th Hadamard power of any $n\times n$ positive semi-definite (p.s.d.) matrix with non-negative entries is p.s.d. It is known that this set is of the form $\{0, 1, \dots, n-3\}\cup…
The intended purpose of this work is to provide the reader with a comprehensive, state-of-the art presentation of the theory of complex Hadamard matrices, or at least report on the very recent advances. This manuscript consists of three…
We construct orthogonal arrays OA$_{\lambda} (k,n)$ (of strength two) having a row that is repeated $m$ times, where $m$ is as large as possible. In particular, we consider OAs where the ratio $m / \lambda$ is as large as possible; these…
Let $m,n,s,k$ be four integers such that $3\leq s \leq n$, $3\leq k\leq m$ and $ms=nk$. Set $d=\gcd(s,k)$. In this paper we show how one can construct a Heffter array $H(m,n;s,k)$ starting from a square Heffter array $H(nk/d;d)$ whose…
In a celebrated paper of 1893, Hadamard established the maximal determinant theorem, which establishes an upper bound on the determinant of a matrix with complex entries of norm at most $1$. His paper concludes with the suggestion that…
For Tur\'an's (3, 4)-conjecture, in the case of n = 3k+1 vertices, (.5)6^{k-1} non-isomorphic complexes are constructed that attain the conjecture. In the case of n = 3k+2 vertices, 6^{k-1} non-isomorphic complexes are constructed that…
We give a new construction of the outer automorphism of the symmetric group on six points. Our construction features a complex Hadamard matrix of order six containing third roots of unity and the algebra of split quaternions over the real…
We have extended the Paley constructions for Hadamard matrices and obtained some series of Hadamard matrices. Especially Paley construction-II is applicable for odd prime power q is congruent to 1(mod 4) however our method is applicable for…
The work deals with the qualification of semidiscrete hyperbolic type equations. We study a class of equations of the form $$\frac{du_{n+1}}{dx}=f\left(\frac{du_{n}}{dx},u_{n+1},u_{n}\right),$$ here the unknown function $u_n(x)$ depends on…
Provided that a cohomological model for $G$ is known, we describe a method for constructing a basis for $n$-cocycles over $G$, from which the whole set of $n$-dimensional $n$-cocyclic matrices over $G$ may be straightforwardly calculated.…
We continue our systematic search for symmetric Hadamard matrices based on the so called propus construction. In a previous paper this search covered the orders $4v$ with odd $v\le41$. In this paper we cover the cases $v=43,45,47,49,51$.…
We study orthogonal matrices whose elements have moduli $\leq 1$. This paper shows that the existence of two such families of matrices is equivalent. Specifically we show that the existence of an Hadamard matrix of order $4t$ is equivalent…
