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…

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…

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.

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…

In this paper Butson-type complex Hadamard matrices $\mathrm{BH}(n,q)$ of order $n$ and complexity $q$ are classified for small parameters by computer-aided methods. Our main results include the enumeration of $\mathrm{BH}(21,3)$,…

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 $BH(m,n)$…

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…

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…

An $n\times n$ complex matrix $M$ with entries in the $k^{\textrm{th}}$ roots of unity which satisfies $MM^{\ast} = nI_{n}$ is called a Butson Hadamard matrix. While a matrix with entries in the $k^{\textrm{th}}$ roots typically does not…

A Butson-Hadamard matrix H is a square matrix of dimension n whose entries are complex roots of unity such that HH*= nI. In the first part of this work, some new results on generalized Gray map are studied. In the second part, codes…

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…

Strongly quadrangular matrices have been introduced in the study of the combinatorial properties of unitary matrices. It is known that if a (0, 1)-matrix supports a unitary then it is strongly quadrangular. However, the converse is not…

We study the isolated partial Hadamard matrices, under the assumption that the entries are roots of unity, or more generally, under the assumption that the combinatorics comes from vanishing sums of roots of unity. We first review the…

We introduce the concept of a morphism from the set of Butson Hadamard matrices over kth roots of unity to the set of Butson matrices over $\ell$th roots of unity. As concrete examples of such morphisms, we describe tensor-product-like maps…

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…

The spectra of previously constructed auxiliary matrices for the six-vertex model at roots of unity are investigated for spin-chains of even and odd length. The two cases show remarkable differences. In particular, it is shown that for even…

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 compute invariants of quadratic forms associated to orthogonal hypergeometric groups of degree five. This allows us to determine some commensurabilities between these groups, as well as to say when some thin groups cannot be conjugate to…

We characterize all simple unitarizable representations of the braid group $B_3$ on complex vector spaces of dimension $d \leq 5$. In particular, we prove that if $\sigma_1$ and $\sigma_2$ denote the two generating twists of $B_3$, then a…

The non-commutative five-term relation $T_{1,0} T_{0,1} = T_{0,1} T_{1,1} T_{1,0}$ is shown to hold for certain operators acting on symmetric functions. The "generalized recursion" conjecture of Bergeron and Haiman is a corollary of this…
