Abstract

A finite set X in a complex sphere is called a complex spherical 2-code if the number of inner products between two distinct vectors in X is equal to 2. In this paper, we characterize the tight complex spherical 2-codes by doubly regular tournaments or skew Hadamard matrices. We also give certain maximal 2-codes relating to skew-symmetric D-optimal designs. To prove them, we show the smallest embedding dimension of a tournament into a complex sphere by the multiplicity of the smallest or second-smallest eigenvalue of the Seidel matrix.
