Conjectures Made by Me and Others (Please indicate your claims))

  • The first unresolved case is order 32 for which I suspect there are over 33,000 Inequivalent Hadamard Matrices.

  • There are certainly hundreds and probably thousands of Inequivalent Hadamard matrices for orders 36, 44, 52, .....

  • I conjecture that as the power of two increases (eg 32 is 2^5 while 36 is 2^2x9) the number of inequivalent cases increases dramatically.

  • I conjecture that the number of Inequivalent Hadamard Matrices of order 36 which are regular (ie have constant row and column sum) is over 100. I conjecture that there are tens of Reqular Inequivalent Hadamard Matrices of order 36 which are not equivalent to a symmetric Reqular Hadamard Matrices of order 36.
