We describe a construction of three-dimensional Hadamard matrices of even order $v$ such that $v-1$ is a prime power. The construction covers infinitely many orders for which the existence was previously open.
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…
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…
A new family of asymmetric matrices of Walsh-Hadamard type is introduced. We study their properties and, in particular, compute their determinants and discuss their eigenvalues. The invertibility of these matrices implies that certain…

For a q by q matrix x=(x_{i,j}) we let J(x)=(x_{i,j}^{-1}) be the Hadamard inverse, which takes the reciprocal of the elements of x . We let I(x)=(x_{i,j})^{-1} denote the matrix inverse, and we define K=I\circ J to be the birational map…
We give a detailed discussion of our general determination of (i) the number of unremovable, physically meaningful phases in quark mass matrices and (ii) which elements of these matrices can be rendered real by rephasings of fermion fields.…
Let $q$ be a prime power of the form $q=12c^2+4c+3$ with $c$ an arbitrary integer. In this paper we construct a difference family with parameters $(2q^2;q^2,q^2,q^2,q^2-1;2q^2-2)$ in ${\mathbb Z}_2\times ({\mathbb F}_{q^2},+)$. As a…
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…
A classification of Hadamard matrices of order $2p+2$ with an automorphism of order $p$ is given for $p=29$ and $31$. The ternary self-dual codes spanned by the newly found Hadamard matrices of order $60$ with an automorphism of order $29$…
In this study, we introduce the concept of commutative quaternions and commutative quaternion matrices. Firstly, we give some properties of commutative quaternions and their Hamilton matrices. After that we investigate commutative…
Consider the set of scalars $\alpha$ for which the $\alpha$th Hadamard power of any $n\times n$ positive semi-definite (p.s.d.) matrix with non-negative entries is p.s.d. It is known that this set is of the form $\{0, 1, \dots, n-3\}\cup…
We deepen the theory of quasiorthogonal and approximately quasiorthogonal operator algebras through an analysis of the commutative algebra case. We give a new approach to calculate the measure of orthogonality between two such subalgebras…
Constructions of Hadamard matrices from smaller blocks is a well-known technique in the theory of real Hadamard matrices: tensoring Hadamard matrices and the classical arrays of Williamson, Ito are all procedures involving smaller order…
Codes from generalized Hadamard matrices have already been introduced. Here we deal with these codes when the generalized Hadamard matrices are cocyclic. As a consequence, a new class of codes that we call generalized Hadamard full…
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…
Quaternary unit Hadamard (QUH) matrices were introduced by Fender, Kharagani and Suda along with a method to construct them at prime power orders. We present a novel construction of real Hadamard matrices from QUH matrices. Our construction…
Complex Hadamard matrices (CHMs) are intimately related to the number of distinct matrix elements. We investigate CHMs containing exactly three distinct elements, which is also the least number of distinct elements. In this paper, we show…
