Abstract: A Formal Orthogonal Pair is a pair $(A,B)$ of symbolic rectangular matrices such that $A{B}^T=0$. It can be applied for the construction of Hadamard and Weighing matrices. In this paper we introduce a systematic way for constructing such pairs. Our method involves Representation Theory and Group Cohomology. The orthogonality property is a consequence of non-vanishing maps between certain cohomology groups. This construction has strong connections to the theory of Association Schemes and (weighted) Coherent Configurations. Our techniques are also capable for producing (anti-) amicable pairs. A handful of examples are given.
