Abstract
The only known circulant ordinary Hadamard matrix is developed from the initial row-1, 1, 1, 1. Letp be a prime, and letZ p denote the cyclic group of orderp. In this paper, we construct circulantGH(p 2;Z p ) for all primesp. Whenp is odd, this result also extends the earlier result that there exist circulantGH(p;Z p ) for all odd primesp. Other families ofGH-matrices which are developed modulo a group are discussed.
