Abstract

Let G be a finite group and \(k\geqslant 2\) be an integer. A (Gk, 1)-difference matrix (DM) is a \(k\times |G|\) matrix \(D=(d_{ij})\) with entries from G, such that for all distinct rows x and y, the multiset of differences \(\{d_{xi} d_{yi}^{-1}:1\leqslant i\leqslant |G|\}\) contains each element of G exactly once. This paper examines the existence of difference matrices with five rows over a finite abelian group. It is proved that if G is a finite abelian group and the Sylow 2-subgroup of G is trivial or noncyclic, then a (G, 5, 1)-DM exists, except for \(G \in \{{\mathbb {Z}}_3,\) \({\mathbb {Z}}_2 \oplus {\mathbb {Z}}_2,\) \({\mathbb {Z}}_4 \oplus {\mathbb {Z}}_2,\) \({\mathbb {Z}}_9\}\) and possibly for some groups whose Sylow 2-subgroup lies in \(\{{\mathbb {Z}}_2\oplus {\mathbb {Z}}_2\), \({\mathbb {Z}}_4\oplus {\mathbb {Z}}_2\), \({\mathbb {Z}}_{32} \oplus {\mathbb {Z}}_{2},\) \({\mathbb {Z}}_{16} \oplus {\mathbb {Z}}_{4}\}\), and some cyclic groups of order 9p with p prime.

The construction of the previous three HPMDs was facilitated by first finding suitable \(\bmod \ 2\) values for the first (\({\mathbb {Z}}_2\) or \({\mathbb {Z}}_6\)) coordinate and mod 6 values for the last \(({\mathbb {Z}}_{36},\) \({\mathbb {Z}}_{12}\) or \({\mathbb {Z}}_{18})\) coordinate of each point in the base blocks before doing the main part of the computer search. We used the same mod 2 and mod 6 prespecifications for all three of these HPMDs. The next HPMD was also obtained by first prespecifying these mod 2 and mod 6 values. Prespecifying the mod y values of certain entries (for some small y) is a tool that can sometimes help when searching for other types of designs such as designs obtained from difference families.

A strictly \(({\mathbb {Z}}_2 \oplus {\mathbb {Z}}_{72},{\mathbb {Z}}_2 \oplus 6{\mathbb {Z}}_{72})\)-invariant 5-HPMD of type \(24^{6}\):

The 24 base blocks are now obtained by multiplying each of the above 12 base blocks by 1 and \(-1\).
