A trade in a complex Hadamard matrix is a set of entries which can be changed to obtain a different complex Hadamard matrix. We show that in a real Hadamard matrix of order $n$ all trades contain at least $n$ entries. We call a trade…
We study the rank 4 linear matroid $M(H_4)$ associated with the 4-dimensional root system $H_4$. This root system coincides with the vertices of the 600-cell, a 4-dimensional regular solid. We determine the automorphism group of this…
We advance our understanding of the configurations of low degree smooth rational curves on (quasi-)polarized complex K3-surfaces. We apply our efficient approach to classify the configurations of at least 36 lines on K3-sextics with at…
We consider nonsymmetric hermitian complex Hadamard matrices belonging to the Bose-Mesner algebra of commutative nonsymmetric association schemes. First, we give a characterization of the eigenmatrix of a commutative nonsymmetric…
We discuss an extension of the almost Hadamard matrix formalism, to the case of complex matrices. Quite surprisingly, the situation here is very different from the one in the real case, and our conjectural conclusion is that there should be…
In this paper, we obtain some new matrix inequalities involving Hadamard product. Also some Hadamard product inequalities for accretive matrices involving the matrix means, positive unital linear maps and matrix concave functions are…
We deal with the asymptotic enumeration of combinatorial structures on planar maps. Prominent instances of such problems are the enumeration of spanning trees, bipartite perfect matchings, and ice models. The notion of orientations with…
In light of recent interest in Hadamard diagonalisable graphs (graphs whose Laplacian matrix is diagonalisable by a Hadamard matrix), we generalise this notion from real to complex Hadamard matrices. We give some basic properties and…
We prove that a harmonic quasi-isometric map between pinched Hadamard surfaces is a quasi-conformal diffeomorphism.
Let o be a 4k-length column vector whose all entries are 1s, with k a positive integer. Let V={v_i} be a set of semi-normalized Hadamard (SH)-vectors, which are 4k-length vectors whose 2k entries are -1s and the remaining 2k are 1s. We…
In this paper we present a method for constructing directed strongly regular graphs with assumed action of an automorphism group. The application of this method leads to first examples of directed strongly regular graphs with parameters…
Skeletal polyhedra and polygonal complexes in ordinary Euclidean 3-space are finite or infinite 3-periodic structures with interesting geometric, combinatorial, and algebraic properties. They can be viewed as finite or infinite 3-periodic…
The largest prime p that can be the order of an automorphism of a 2-(35,17,8) design is p=17, and all 2-(35,17,8) designs with an automorphism of order 17 were classified by Tonchev. The symmetric 2-(35,17,8) designs with automorphisms of…
A saturated D-optimal design is a {+1,-1} square matrix of given order with maximal determinant. We search for saturated D-optimal designs of orders 19 and 37, and find that known matrices due to Smith, Cohn, Orrick and Solomon are optimal.…
We give an explicit construction, based on Hadamard matrices, for an infinite series of floor{sqrt{d}/2}-neighborly centrally symmetric d-dimensional polytopes with 4d vertices. This appears to be the best explicit version yet of a recent…
We explore a notion of bent sequence attached to the data consisting of an Hadamard matrix of order $n$ defined over the complex $q^{th}$ roots of unity, an eigenvalue of that matrix, and a Galois automorphism from the cyclotomic field of…
Kirkman triple systems (KTSs) are among the most popular combinatorial designs and their existence has been settled a long time ago. Yet, in comparison with Steiner triple systems, little is known about their automorphism groups. In…
Craigen introduced and studied signed group Hadamard matrices extensively and eventually provided an asymptotic existence result for Hadamard matrices. Following his lead, Ghaderpour introduced signed group orthogonal designs and showed an…
Given $r>n$ general hyperplanes in $\mathbb P^n,$ a star configuration of points is the set of all the $n$-wise intersection of them. We introduce {\it contact star configurations}, which are star configurations where all the hyperplanes…
We investigate the automorphism group of the substructure ordering of finite directed graphs. The second author conjectured that it is isomorphic to the 768-element group $(\mathbb{Z}_2^4 \times S_4)\rtimes_{\alpha} \mathbb{Z}_2$. Though…
