In this paper we provide a general method to construct four-parameter families of complex Hadamard matrices of order six. Our approach is to write a 6-dimensional matrix as composed of four blocks, each one in the form of a circulant…

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 $A=\mathbb C$,…
