In this paper, we obtain several nonexistence results for abelian Hadamard diier-ence sets. In particular, we prove that there are no Hadamard diierence sets in abelian groups G = Z 2 Z 2 P , where jPj = p 2 , is odd and p is a prime congruent to 1(mod 4). Also we give a detailed proof for a connection between certain reversible Hadamard diierence sets and projective three-weight codes which wa...
