We study the deformed tensor products of complex Hadamard matrices, $L_{ia,jb}=Q_{ib}H_{ij}K_{ab}$. One problem is that of reconstructing the quantum group $G_L\subset S_{NM}^+$ out of the quantum groups $G_H\subset S_N^+,G_K\subset S_M^+$…
We develop a combinatorial approach to the quantum permutation algebras, as Hopf images of representations of type $\pi:A_s(n)\to B(H)$. We discuss several general problems, including the commutativity and cocommutativity ones, the…
We construct new pairs of orthogonal maximal abelian $*$-subalgebras of $M_6(\mathbb C)$, by classifying all self-adjoint complex Hadamard matrices of order 6. In particular, we exhibit a non-affine one-parameter family of non-equivalent…
We study the partial Hadamard matrices $H\in M_{M\times N}(\mathbb C)$ which are regular, in the sense that the scalar products between pairs of distinct rows decompose as sums of cycles (rotated sums of roots of unity). The simplest…
It is shown that a normalized complex Hadamard matrix of order $6$ having three distinct columns, each containing at least one $-1$ entry necessarily belongs to the transposed Fourier family, or to the family of $2$-circulant complex…
We study the quantum groups appearing via models $C(G)\subset M_K(C(X))$ which are "stationary", in the sense that the Haar integration over $G$ is the functional $tr\otimes\int_X$. Our results include a number of generalities, notably with…
An analytical method for getting new complex Hadamard matrices by using mutually unbiased bases and a nonlinear doubling formula is provided. The method is illustrated with the n=4 case that leads to a rich family of eight-dimensional…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce new parametric families of complex Hadamard matrices in two different ways. First, we prove that every real Hadamard matrix of order N>=4 admits an affine orbit. This settles a recent open problem…
Given a quantum permutation group $G\subset S_N^+$, with orbits having the same size $K$, we construct a universal matrix model $\pi:C(G)\to M_K(C(X))$, having the property that the images of the standard coordinates $u_{ij}\in C(G)$ are…
We introduce Hadamard matrices whose entries are quaternionic. We then go on to provide classification of quaternionic Hadamard matrices of circulant core of orders 2 through 5. We also introduce quaternionic Hadamard matrices of Butson…
In this talk we go over several new developments regarding the techniques for a large class of non-hermitian matrix models with unitary randomness (complex random numbers). In particular, we discuss: (a) - A diagrammatic approach based on a…
A new method of obtaining a sequence of isolated complex Hadamard matrices (CHM) for dimensions $N\geqslant 7$, based on block-circulant structures, is presented. We discuss, several analytic examples resulting from a modification of the…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $h$ be a positive integer. A $\text{BH}(G,h)$ matrix is a $G$-invariant $|G|\times |G|$ matrix $H$ whose entries are complex $h$th roots of unity such that $HH^*=|G|I_{|G|}$, where $H^*$ denotes the complex…
Centraliser algebras of monomial representations of finite groups may be constructed and studied using methods similar to those employed in the study of permutation groups. Guided by results of D. G. Higman and others, we give an explicit…
We describe combinatorial properties of the defining row of a circulant Hadamard matrix by exploiting its orthogonality to subsequent rows, and show how to exclude several particular forms of these matrices.
In this paper we construct a new, previously unknown four-parameter family of complex Hadamard matrices of order 6, the entries of which are described by algebraic functions of roots of various sextic polynomials. We conjecture that the…
One of the main goals of design theory is to classify, characterize and count various combinatorial objects with some prescribed properties. In most cases, however, one quickly encounters a combinatorial explosion and even if the complete…
The paper discusses progress in understanding statistical properties of complex eigenvalues (and corresponding eigenvectors) of weakly non-unitary and non-Hermitian random matrices. Ensembles of this type emerge in various physical…
