Some special complex Hadamard matrices of order six

Abstract

The complete classification of $6\times 6$ complex Hadamard matrices (CHMs) is a long-standing open problem. In this paper we investigate a series of CHMs, such as the CHMs containing a $2\times 3$ submatrix with rank one, the CHMs containing exactly three distinct elements and all elements of the first row being one, the $H_2$-reducible matrices containing exactly three distinct matrix elements, and the CHMs containing a $3\times 3$ Hadamard submatrix. We characterize all forms of these CHMs. Our results are the latest progress on the complete classification of CHMs.
