skew Hadamard matrix
A Hadamard matrix H is skew Hadamard if H+HT=2I.
A collection of skew Hadamard matrices, including at least one example of every order n≤100
and also including every equivalence class
of order ≤28, is available
http://www.rangevoting.org/SkewHad.htmlat this web page.
It has been conjectured that one exists for every positive order divisible by 4.
Reid and Brown in 1972 showed that there exists a
“doubly regular tournament
of order n”
if and only if there exists a skew Hadamard matrix of order n+1.
