Spectral Properties of Small Hadamard Matrices

We prove that if $A$ and $B$ are Hadamard matrices which are both of size $4 \times 4$ or $5 \times 5$ and in dephased form, then $tr(A) = tr(B)$ implies that $A$ and $B$ have the same eigenvalues, including multiplicity. We calculate explicitly the spectrum for these matrices. We also extend these results to larger Hadamard matrices which are permutations of the Fourier matrix and calculate their spectral multiplicities.
