On skew-Hadamard matrices Original Research Article

Skew-Hadamard matrices are of special interest due to their use, among others, in constructing orthogonal designs. In this paper, we give a survey on the existence and equivalence of skew-Hadamard matrices. In addition, we present some new skew-Hadamard matrices of order 52 and improve the known lower bound on the number of the skew-Hadamard matrices of this order.
