Short description: 2x2 matrix with 1 and -1 coefficients

In mathematics, the matrix

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{pmatrix} 1 & -1 \\ 1 & 1 \end{pmatrix} }[/math]

is sometimes called the quincunx matrix. It is a 2×2 Hadamard matrix, and its rows form the basis of a diagonal square lattice consisting of the integer points whose coordinates both have the same parity; this lattice is a two-dimensional analogue of the three-dimensional body-centered cubic lattice.[1]
