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…
A lemma by Chen et al. [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50, 475304 (2017)] provides a necessary condition on the structure of any complex Hadamard matrix in a set of four mutually unbiased bases in $\mathbb{C}^6$. The proof of the lemma is shown…
We present a new method for constructing affine families of complex Hadamard matrices in every even dimension. This method has an intersection with the Di\c{t}\u{a} construction and it generalizes the Sz\"oll\H{o}si's method. We reproduce…
Hadamard matrices, orthogonal designs and amicable orthogonal designs have a number of applications in coding theory, cryptography, wireless network communication and so on. Product designs were introduced by Robinson in order to construct…
A novel method to obtain parametrizations of complex inverse orthogonal matrices is provided. These matrices are natural generalizations of complex Hadamard matrices which depend on non zero complex parameters. The method we use is via…
We give a new construction of the outer automorphism of the symmetric group on six points. Our construction features a complex Hadamard matrix of order six containing third roots of unity and the algebra of split quaternions over the real…
A new class of structured matrices is presented and a closed form formula for their determinant is established. This formula has strong connections with the one for Vandermonde matrices.
In this paper we introduce modular symmetric designs and use them to study the existence of Hadamard matrices modulo 5. We prove that there exist 5-modular Hadamard matrices of order n if and only if n != 3, 7 (mod 10) or n != 6, 11. In…
Hadamard matrices are square $n\times n$ matrices whose entries are ones and minus ones and whose rows are orthogonal to each other with respect to the standard scalar product in $\Bbb R^n$. Each Hadamard matrix can be transformed to a…
Hadamard matrices are $(-1, +1)$ square matrices with mutually orthogonal rows. The Hadamard conjecture states that Hadamard matrices of order $n$ exist whenever $n$ is $1$, $2$, or a multiple of $4$. However, no construction is known that…
What is the dimension of a smooth family of complex Hadamard matrices including the Fourier matrix? We address this problem with a power series expansion. Studying all dimensions up to 100 we find that the first order result is misleading…
We study the problem of constructing mutually unbiased bases in dimension six. This approach is based on an efficient numerical method designed to find solutions to the quantum state reconstruction problem in finite dimensions. Our…
Finding four six-dimensional mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) containing the identity matrix is a long-standing open problem in quantum information. We show that if they exist, then the $H_2$-reducible matrix in the four MUBs has exactly nine…
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…
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…
In this paper we provide an analytical procedure which leads to a system of $(n-2)^2$ polynomial equations whose solutions give the parameterisation of the complex $n\times n$ Hadamard matrices. It is shown that in general the Hadamard…
Hadamard matrices in $\{0,1\}$ presentation are square $m\times m$ matrices whose entries are zeros and ones and whose rows considered as vectors in $\Bbb R^m$ produce the Gram matrix of a special form with respect to the standard scalar…
We introduce the Hadamard full propelinear codes that factorize as direct product of groups such that their associated group is $C_{2t}\times C_2$. We study the rank, the dimension of the kernel, and the structure of these codes. For…
A Hadamard matrix $H$ of order $n$ is a square matrix with entries $\pm 1$ satisfying $HH^T = nI_n$, where $I_n$ is the identity matrix of order $n$. A circulant Hadamard matrix is a Hadamard matrix whose rows are cyclic shifts of one…
In this paper we modify a fundamental block construction of Kharaghani and Seberry and show how to use certain circulant $\{-1,1\}$-matrices of odd order $p$ to construct a complex Hadamard matrix of order $2p$. In particular, for $p=47$ we…
