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…

We give a new construction of difference families generalizing Szekeres's difference families \cite{Sze}. As an immediate consequence, we obtain some new examples of difference families with several blocks in multiplicative subgroups of…

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…

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…

In this paper we investigate the structure of the critical groups of doubly regular tournaments (DRTs) associated with skew Hadamard difference families (SDFs) with one, two, or four blocks. Brown and Reid found the existence of a skew…

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 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 $N=2p_1^m$,…

Skew Hadamard difference sets are an interesting topic of study for over seventy years. For a long time, it had been conjectured the classical Paley difference sets (the set of nonzero quadratic residues in $\mathbb{F}_q$ where $q \equiv 3…

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…

If $D$ is a $(4u^2,2u^2-u,u^2-u)$ Hadamard difference set (HDS) in $G$, then $\{G,G\setminus D\}$ is clearly a $(4u^2,[2u^2-u,2u^2+u],2u^2)$ partitioned difference family (PDF). Any $(v,K,\lambda)$-PDF will be said of Hadamard-type if…

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 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…

A skew Hadamard difference set (SHDS) is a difference set that satisfies the skew condition. It is known that if a group G admits a skew hadamard difference set, then G is a p-group with order congruent to 3 modulo 4. We will generalize…

In this paper, we give a construction of strongly regular Cayley graphs and a construction of skew Hadamard difference sets. Both constructions are based on choosing cyclotomic classes in finite fields, and they generalize the constructions…

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…

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

Recently, Feng and Xiang \cite{FX113} found a new construction of skew Hadamard difference sets in elementary abelian groups. In this paper, we introduce a new invariant for equivalence of skew Hadamard difference sets, namely triple…

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…

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…

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…
