The only $Cretan(4t+1)$ matrices previously published are for orders 5, 9, 13, 17 and 37. This paper gives infinitely many new $Cretan(4t+1)$ matrices constructed using $regular~Hadamard$ matrices, $SBIBD(4t+1,k,\\lambda)$, weighing matrices, generalized Hadamard matrices and the Kronecker product. We introduce an inequality for the radius and give a construction for a Cretan matrix for every order $n \\geq 3$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-10-20T02:04:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05B20", "G.2.1" ], "keywords": [ "kronecker product", "orthogonal matrix", "cretan matrix", "generalized hadamard matrices" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151005736B" } } }
