  Hadamard product} 
\presenter{Ramazan T\"urkmen}

This is joint work with Haci Civciv.
Matrix groups are central in many parts of mathematics and its applications,
and the theory of matrix groups is ideal as an introduction to mathematics.
On the one hand it is easy to calculate and understand examples, and on the
other hand the examples lead to an understanding of the general theoretical
framework that incorporates the matrix groups.  However, the strong Hadamard
product has a ring and very pleasing algebra that supports a wide range of
fast, elegant and practical algorithms. Several trends in scientific
computing suggest that this important matrix operation will have an
increasingly greater role to play in the future. First, these product
include signal processing, image processing, and quantum computing. Second,
the strong Hadamard product is proving to be a very effective way to look at
fast linear transforms. In this note, we examine some properties some
specific matrix groups under the strong Hadamard multiplication.
