A powerful tool in the construction of orthogonal designs has been amicable orthogonal designs. Recent results in the construction of Hadamard matrices has led to the need to find amicable orthogonal designs A, B in order n and of types (u1, U2, …, u6) and (ν1, ν2, …, νr) respectively satisfying At = -A, Bt = B, and ABt = BAt withFor simplicity, we say A, B are amicable orthogonal designs of type (u1, u2, …, us; v1, v2, …, vr).We completely answer the question in order 8 by showing (1, 2, 2, 2; 8), (1, 2, 4; 2, 2, 4), (2, 2, 3; 2, 6), (7, 1, 7) and those designs derived from the above are the only possible.We use our results to obtain new orthogonal designs in order 32.

Dedicated to Professor George SzekeresShort amicable sets were introduced recently and have many applications. The construction of short amicable sets has lead to the construction of many orthogonal designs, weighing matrices and Hadamard matrices. In this paper we give some constructions for short amicable sets as well as some multiplication theorems. We also present a table of the short amicable sets known to exist and we construct some infinite families of short amicable sets and orthogonal designs.

An Hadamard matrix H is a square matrix of order n all of whose entries are ± 1 such thatThere are matrices of order 1 and 2and for all other Hadamard matrices the order n is a multiple of 4, n = 4m. It is a reasonable conjecture that Hadamard matrices exist for every order which is a multiple of 4 and the lowest order in doubt is 268. With every Hadamard matrix H4m a symmetric design D exists with

A Hadamard matrix Hn is an n by n matrix H = [hij], i, j = 1, …, n in which every entry hij is + 1 or − 1, such thatIt is well known that possible orders are n = 1, 2 and n = 4m. An automorphism α of H is given by a pair P, Q of monomial ± 1 matrices such thatHere P permutes and changes signs of rows, while Q acts similarly on columns.

Abstract We propose some methods for the construction of large quasi-orthogonal matrices and generalized rotations that may be used in applications in data communications and image processing. We use certain combinations of constructions by blocks similar to the one used by Sylvester to build Hadamard matrices. The orthogonal designs related with the matrix representations of the complex numbers, the quaternions, and the octonions are used in our construction procedures.

Using the terminology in 2 (where the expression m-type is also explained) we will prove the following theorems: Theorem 1. If there exist (i) a skew-Hadamard matrix H = U+I of order h, (ii)m-type matrices M = W+I and N = NT of order m, (iii) three matrices X, Y, Z of order x = 3 (mod 4) satisfying (a) XYT, YZT and ZXT all symmetric, and (b) XXT = aIx+bJxthen is an Hadamard matrix of order mxh.

This paper produces new types of designs, called product designs, which prove extremely useful for constructing orthogonal designs. An orthogonal design of order 2t and typeis constructed. This design often meets the Radon bound for the number of variables.We also show that all orthogonal designs of order 2t and type (a, b, c, d, 2t-a-b-c-d), with 0 < a + b + c + d < 2t, exist for t = 5, 6, and 7.

Anorthogonal design in order n of type(u1, …,ut) on the commuting variablesx1, …,xtis ann×nmatrixXwith entries 0, ±x1, …, ±xtsuch thatIn [5] Geramita and Wallis show that ifn= 24a+b·n0, wheren0is odd and 0 ≦b> 4, thent≧ρ(n)= 8a+ 2b. The result is essentially Radon's limit on the number of anti-commuting, real, anti-symmetric, orthogonal matrices in ordern. Garamita and Pullman show that this limit is sharp for orthogonal designs: i.e., givenn, there exists an orthogonal design in ordernwithρ(n)variables [6].Two orthogonal designs,XandF, are calledamicableifXYt=YXt.Such pairs of orthogonal designs are especially useful in generating new orthogonal designs [5] or [6].
