Questions on symmetric Hadamard matrices
Definitions: An $n\times n$ Hadamard matrix (HM for short) is a matrix whose entries are either $1$ or $−1$ and whose rows are mutually orthogonal.
If $A$ is a symmetric matrix, then $A = A^T$ and if $...

Cardinality of the maximum points of the determinant on matrices with entries in [-1, 1]
By multilinearity, the maximum of the determinant on matrices with entries in the interval [-1, 1] is attained at a {-1, 1}-matrix. By the following example, the maximum is attained at infinitely many ...

About the Hadamard conjecture
On the wikipedia article about Hadamard Matrix it says that "The smallest order that cannot be constructed by a combination of Sylvester's and Paley's methods is $92$"
But it also says that ...

The number of 0-1 normal matrices
Let $A\in\{0,1\}^{n\times n}$ be a $n\times n $ matrix with entries in the discrete set $\{0,1\}$.
My question: What is the number of matrices in $\{0,1\}^{n\times n}$ that are normal, that is, ...

Number of distinct rows and columns in a matrix with bounded number of entries
How many distinct rows and columns a real square matrix can have (at least in symmetric case) such that rank of matrix is $r$ and entries:
are from $\{-b,-b+1,\dots,0,\dots,b-1,b\}$?
are from $\{-b,-...

Rank of a combinatorial matrix
For any $2n$ with $n\in\mathbb{N}$, we conjecture the matrix $A\in\mathcal{M}_{3n\times 2n}$ to have rank $\lceil{\frac{5n-1}{3}}\rceil$ where $$A=\left(\begin{array}{cccccc}
0 & & & &...

An analogue of Hermitian matrix - does it exist?
Let $k$ be any field and $R\subseteq M_s(k)$ be a subring of $s\times s$ matrices over $k$. Identify $k$ with the scalar matrices, so that $k\subseteq R$. Let $A\in M_n(R)$ be an $n\times n$ matrix.

Submatrix with small sum of elements
Let $A$ be an $n \times n$ matrix, for which I know the size of the sum of all its entries. Now I want to select an $m \times m$-submatrix, whose sum of entries is as small as possible. Is there any ...
