Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and let $\exp(G)$ denote the least common multiple of the orders of all elements of $G$. A $BH(G,h)$ matrix is a $G$-invariant $|G|\times |G|$ matrix $H$ whose entries are complex $h$th roots of unity such…

Butson matrices are square orthogonal matrices, denoted by $BH(m,n)$, whose entries are the complex $m$th roots of unity and satisfy the condition\\ $BH(m,n)\cdot{BH(m,n)}^*=nI_n$, where ${BH(m,n)}^*$ is the conjugate transpose of $BH(m,n)$…

An $n \times n$ matrix $H$ is Butson-Hadamard if its entries are $k^{\text{th}}$ roots of unity and it satisfies $HH^* = nI_n$. Write $BH(n, k)$ for the set of such matrices. Suppose that $k = p^{\alpha}q^{\beta}$ where $p$ and $q$ are…

For positive integers $m$ and $n$, we denote by $\mathrm{BH}(m,n)$ the set of all $H\in M_{n\times n}(\mathbb{C})$ such that $HH^\ast=nI_n$ and each entry of $H$ is an $m$-th root of unity where $H^\ast$ is the adjoint matrix of $H$ and…

Based on the concept of positive definite functions on finite groups, we present a new necessary condition for the existence of Butson Hadamard matrices $BH(n,q)$. We use this condition to prove some nonexistence results for a sequence of…

In this paper we study Butson Hadamard matrices, and codes over finite rings coming from these matrices in logarithmic form, called BH-codes. We introduce a new morphism of Butson Hadamard matrices through a generalized Gray map on the…

We axiomatize and study the matrices of type $H\in M_N(A)$, having unitary entries, $H_{ij}\in U(A)$, and whose rows and columns are subject to orthogonality type conditions. Here $A$ can be any $C^*$-algebra, for instance $A=\mathbb C$,…

A matrix $H=[d_{ij}]$ is a generalized Hadamard matrix of order $u\lambda$ with entries from $U$ which is a finite group of order $u$ (for short $\mathrm{GH}(u,\,\lambda)$) such that whenever $i\neq \ell$ the set $\{d_{ij}d_{\ell…

A Butson Hadamard matrix $H$ has entries in the kth roots of unity, and satisfies the matrix equation $HH^{\ast} = nI_{n}$. We write $\mathrm{BH}(n, k)$ for the set of such matrices. A complete morphism of Butson matrices is a map…

We introduce a construction that, given a pair (u,v) of complex Hadamard matrices of the same order, generates infinitely many biunitary matrices of varying (and distinct) orders. As a key application, this framework yields nested sequences…

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…

In this note we utilize a non-trivial block approach due to M. Petrescu to exhibit a Butson-type complex Hadamard matrix of order 19, composed of sixth roots of unity.

In this paper, we obtain a number of new infinite families of Hadamard matrices. Our constructions are based on four new constructions of difference families with four or eight blocks. By applying the Wallis-Whiteman array or the Kharaghani…

If $q = p^n$ is a prime power, then a $d$-dimensional \emph{$q$-Butson Hadamard matrix} $H$ is a $d\times d$ matrix with all entries $q$th roots of unity such that $HH^* = dI_d$. We use algebraic number theory to prove a strong constraint…

A complex Hadamard matrix is a square matrix H with complex entries of absolute value 1 satisfying $HH^*= nI$, where $*$ stands for the Hermitian transpose and I is the identity matrix of order $n$. In this paper, we first determine the…

We give an example of a BH(5; 5) matrix M satisfying that the eigenvalues of the unitary matrix $\frac{1}{\sqrt5}M$ are all primitive 10-th roots of unity and such that $\frac{1}{5}M^3$ is not a BH(5; 5) matrix. This example gives a…

We classify all the cocyclic Butson Hadamard matrices $\mathrm{BH}(n,p)$ of order $n$ over the $p$th roots of unity for an odd prime $p$ and $np\leq 100$. That is, we compile a list of matrices such that any cocyclic $\mathrm{BH}(n,p)$ for…

Complex Hadamard matrices H of order 6 are characterized in a novel manner, according to the presence/absence of order 2 Hadamard submatrices. It is shown that if there exists one such submatrix, H is equivalent to a Hadamard matrix where…

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…
