A characterization of $\mathbb{Z} _t \times \mathbb{Z}_2^2$-cocyclic Hadamard matrices is described, depending on the notions of {\em distributions}, {\em ingredients} and {\em recipes}. In particular, these notions lead to the…
Following the ideas of [AGG11] about Zt x Z2,2-cocyclic Hadamard matrices, we introduce the notion of diagram, which visually represents any set of coboundaries. Diagrams are a very useful tool for the description and the study of paths and…
Provided that a cohomological model for $G$ is known, we describe a method for constructing a basis for $n$-cocycles over $G$, from which the whole set of $n$-dimensional $n$-cocyclic matrices over $G$ may be straightforwardly calculated.…
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…
A manifestly Lorentz-covariant calculus based on two matrix-coordinates and their associated derivatives is introduced. It allows formulating relativistic field theories in any even-dimensional spacetime. The construction extends a…
A Hadamard matrix is a scaled orthogonal matrix with $\pm 1$ entries. Such matrices exist in certain dimensions: the Hadamard conjecture is that such a matrix always exists when $n$ is a multiple of 4. A conjecture attributed to Ryser is…
Apart from the ordinary and the periodic Golay pairs, we define also the negaperiodic Golay pairs. (They occurred first, under a different name, in a paper of Ito.) If a Hadamard matrix is also a Toeplitz matrix, we show that it must be…
We introduce the notion of quasi-orthogonal cocycle. This is motivated in part by the maximal determinant problem for square $\{\pm 1\}$-matrices of size congruent to $2$ modulo $4$. Quasi-orthogonal cocycles are analogous to the orthogonal…
The $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_4\mathbb{Z}_8$-additive codes are subgroups of $\mathbb{Z}_2^{\alpha_1} \times \mathbb{Z}_4^{\alpha_2} \times \mathbb{Z}_8^{\alpha_3}$, and can be seen as linear codes over $\mathbb{Z}_2$ when…
Although Hadamard matrices have been investigated since the nineteenth century, relatively little is known about their higher-dimensional analogues. In this paper, we introduce two constructions of Hadamard hypercubes. The first…
In this paper a method for embedding cocyclic submatrices with ``large'' determinants of orders 2t in certain cocyclic Hadamard matrices of orders 4t is described (t an odd integer). If these determinants attain the largest possible value,…
We give some very interesting matrices which are orthogonal over groups and, as far as we know, referenced, but in fact undocumented. This note is not intended to be published but available for archival reasons.
A partial Hadamard matrix is a matrix $H\in M_{M\times N}(\mathbb T)$ whose rows are pairwise orthogonal. We associate to each such $H$ a certain quantum semigroup $G$ of quantum partial permutations of $\{1,...,M\}$ and study the…
Two matrices with elements taken from the set {-1,1} are Hadamard equivalent if one can be converted into the other by a sequence of permutations of rows and columns, and negations of rows and columns. In this paper we summarize what is…
A ${\mathbb Z}_2\times{\mathbb Z}_2$-graded Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ is a ${\mathbb Z}_2\times{\mathbb Z}_2$-graded algebra $\mathfrak g$ with a bracket $[|. , . |]$ that satisfies certain graded versions of the symmetry and Jacobi…
We construct classes of $Z_2 \times Z_2$-graded Lie algebras corresponding to the classical Lie algebras, in terms of their defining matrices. For the $Z_2 \times Z_2$-graded Lie algebra of type $A$, the construction coincides with the…
An Hadamard matrix is a square matrix $H\in M_N(\pm1)$ whose rows and pairwise orthogonal. More generally, we can talk about the complex Hadamard matrices, which are the square matrices $H\in M_N(\mathbb C)$ whose entries are on the unit…
This is a presentation of recent work on quantum permutation groups, complex Hadamard matrices, and the connections between them. A long list of problems is included. We include as well some conjectural statements, about matrix models.
Let $n$ be the order of a (quaternary) Hadamard matrix. It is shown that the existence of a projective plane of order $n$ is equivalent to the existence of a balancedly multi-splittable (quaternary) Hadamard matrix of order $n^2$.
We analyze the set of real and complex Hadamard matrices with additional symmetry constrains. In particular, we link the problem of existence of maximally entangled multipartite states of $2k$ subsystems with $d$ levels each to the set of…
