Fundamentals of the cocyclic development of Hadamard matrices over loops
Raúl M. Falcón, Manuel González-Regadera, Félix Gudiel
This paper establishes a formal framework for the cocyclic development of Hadamard matrices over loops based on a novel cohomology theory with associativity obstructions. In this c…
Gröbner bases and cocyclic Hadamard matrices
V. Álvarez, J. A. Armario, R. M. Falcón +2
Hadamard ideals were introduced in 2006 as a set of nonlinear polynomial equations whose zeros are uniquely related to Hadamard matrices with one or two circulant cores of a given…
Equivalences of -cocyclic Hadamard matrices
V. Alvarez, F. Gudiel, M. B. Guemes +2
One of the most promising structural approaches to resolving the Hadamard Conjecture uses the family of cocyclic matrices over . Two types of…
Determinants of -matrices of the skew-symmetric type: a cocyclic approach
V. Álvarez, J. A. Armario, M. D. Frau +1
An by skew-symmetric type -matrix has 's on the main diagonal and 's elsewhere with . The largest possible determinant of…
GA based robust blind digital watermarking
Víctor Álvarez, José-Andrés Armario, María-Dolores Frau +4
A genetic algorithm based robust blind digital watermarking scheme is presented. Starting from a binary image (the original watermark), a genetic algorithm is performed searching f…
Embedding cocyclic D-optimal designs in cocyclic Hadamard matrices
Víctor Álvarez, José-Andrés Armario, María-Dolores Frau +1
In this paper a method for embedding cocyclic submatrices with ``large'' determinants of orders 2t in certain cocyclic Hadamard matrices of orders 4t is described (t an odd integer…
