Let \(G\) be a group of order \(4n\), \(b\in G\) an element of order \(2\), and \(T\) a transversal of left cosets of \(G\) with respect to \(\langle b\rangle\). Then \(T\) is called left Hadamard transversal if \(|T\cap xT|\in\{2n,n,0\}\) for each \(x\) in \(G\). If \(G\) admits a left and right Hadamard transversal with respect to two elements \(b\), \(b'\) and the order of left and right stabilizers of \(T\) are equal (here \(x\) is a left stabilizer of \(T\) if \(xT=T\)) then \(T\) is called a generalized Hadamard subset of \(G\). Starting from such a transversal it is easy to construe Hadamard designs. Special cases are studied, in particular, when the stabilizer is trivial and when \(G\) is a split extension obtained using an involution. Every elementary abelian group of order \(2^{2m}\) contains a generalized Hadamard subset. There are some misprints and carelessness.
