| contents | This doctoral thesis covers several topics related to the construction and study of maximal determinant matrices with complex entries. The first three chapters are devoted to number-theoretic tools to prove the non-solvability of Gram matrix equations over certain fields, with a focus on combinatorial applications. Chapter 4 gives a survey on Butson-type Hadamard matrices, and shows an improved lower bound on primes $p$ for the existence of $BH(12p, p)$ matrices. Chapter 5 contains the main contributions of the thesis, where the maximal determinant problem for matrices over the m-th roots of unity is discussed, and where new upper and lower bounds, as well as constructions at small orders, are given. Chapter 6 studies maximal determinant matrices over association schemes. Chapter 7 gives an application of design theory to privacy in communications, and it is connected to the rest of the thesis by the use of the theory of quadratic forms. |
