We construct two difference families on each of the cyclic groups of order 109, 145 and 247, and use them to construct skew-Hadamard matrices of orders 436, 580 and 988. Such difference families and matrices are constructed here for the…

We construct several difference families on cyclic groups of orders 47 and 97, and use them to construct skew-Hadamard matrices of orders 188 and 388. Such difference families and matrices are constructed here for the first time. The…

We construct Hadamard matrices of orders 4x251 = 1004 and 4x631 = 2524, and skew-Hadamard matrices of orders 4x213 = 852 and 4x631 = 2524. As far as we know, such matrices have not been constructed previously. The constructions use the…

In this paper, we obtain a number of new infinite families of Hadamard matrices. Our constructions are based on four new constructions of difference families with four or eight blocks. By applying the Wallis-Whiteman array or the Kharaghani…

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…

We single out a class of difference families which is widely used in some constructions of Hadamard matrices and which we call Goethals--Seidel (GS) difference families. They consist of four subsets (base blocks) of a finite abelian group…

The smallest integer v>0 for which no skew-Hadamard matrix of order 4v is known is v=69. We show how to construct several such matrices. We also construct presumably the first example of a skew-Hadamard matrix of order 292, and the first…

First we give an overview of the known supplementary difference sets (SDS) (A_i), i=1..4, with parameters (n;k_i;d), where k_i=|A_i| and each A_i is either symmetric or skew and k_1 + ... + k_4 = n + d. Five new Williamson matrices over the…

We construct many symmetric Hadamard matrices of small order by using the so called propus construction. The necessary difference families are constructed by restricting the search to the families which admit a nontrivial multiplier. Our…

We revisit the old idea of constructing difference sets from cyclotomic classes. Two constructions of skew Hadamard difference sets are given in the additive groups of finite fields using unions of cyclotomic classes of order $N=2p_1^m$,…

Using a class of permutation polynomials of $F_{3^{2h+1}}$ obtained from the Ree-Tits symplectic spreads in $PG(3,3^{2h+1})$, we construct a family of skew Hadamard difference sets in the additive group of $F_{3^{2h+1}}$. With the help of a…

This paper introduces and investigates a novel class of skew-regular Quaternary Hadamard matrices. For every odd prime power $p$, we establish the existence of these matrices for all orders $1+p^2$, each characterized by a constant row sum…

Cocyclic Hadamard matrices (CHMs) were introduced by de Launey and Horadam as a class of Hadamard matrices with interesting algebraic properties. \'O Cath\'ain and R\"oder described a classification algorithm for CHMs of order $4n$ based on…

Given a subgroup $H$ of a group $(G,+)$, a $(G,H,k,1)$ difference family (DF) is a set $\mathcal F$ of $k$-subsets of $G$ such that $\{f-f':f,f'\in F, f\neq f',F\in \mathcal F\}=G\setminus H$. Let $g\mathbb Z_{gh}$ is the subgroup of order…

We construct a skew-Hadamard matrix of order 1252 = 2(5^4 + 1) using a bordered skew-Hadamard difference family over GF(5^4), with blocks given as unions of cyclotomic classes of order N = 16. This order has been reported as missing in some…

We construct many new cyclic (v;r,s;lambda) difference families with v less than or equal 50. In particular we construct the difference families with parameters (45;18,10;9), (45;22,22;21), (47;21,12;12), (47;19,15;12), (47;22,14;14),…

Previous surveys by Baumert and Lopez and Sanchez have resolved the existence of cyclic (v,k,lambda) difference sets with k <= 150, except for six open cases. In this paper we show that four of those difference sets do not exist. We also…

In this paper we construct exponentionally many non-isomorphic skew Hadamard difference sets over an elementary abelian group of order $q^3$.

We find new constructions of infinite families of skew Hadamard difference sets in elementary abelian groups under the assumption of the existence of cyclotomic strongly regular graphs. Our construction is based on choosing cyclotomic…

We continue our systematic search for symmetric Hadamard matrices based on the so called propus construction. In a previous paper this search covered the orders $4v$ with odd $v\le41$. In this paper we cover the cases $v=43,45,47,49,51$.…
