In mathematics, the matrix
\begin{pmatrix} 1&-1\\ 1&1\end{pmatrix}
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]
