Classification of generalized Hadamard matrices and quaternary Hermitian self-dual codes of length 18.
Acomplex Hadamard matrix is a square matrix H with complex entries of absolute value 1 satisfying HH* = nI, where * stands for the Hermitian transpose and I is the identity matrix of order n. In this paper, we first determine the image of a certain rational map from the d-dimensional complex projective space to Cd(d+1)/2. Applying this result with d = 3, we give constructions of complex Hadamard matrices, and more generally, type-II matrices, in the Bose–Mesner algebra of a certain 3-class symmetric...
We consider nonsymmetric hermitian complex Hadamard matrices belonging to the Bose-Mesner algebra of commutative nonsymmetric association schemes. First, we give a characterization of the eigenmatrix of a commutative nonsymmetric association scheme of class 3 whose Bose-Mesner algebra contains a nonsymmetric hermitian complex Hadamard matrix, and show that such a complex Hadamard matrix is necessarily a Butson-type complex Hadamard matrix whose entries are 4-th roots of unity.We also give nonsymmetric...
