In mathematics, a '''Costas array''' can be regarded [[geometry|geometrically]] as a set of ''n'' points, each at the center of a [[square]] in an ''n''×''n'' [[square tiling]] such that each row or column contains only one point, and all of the ''n''(''n'' − 1)/2 [[displacement (vector)|displacement]] [[Euclidean vector|vectors]] between each pair of dots are distinct. This results in an ideal "thumbtack" auto-[[ambiguity function]], making the arrays useful in applications such as [[sonar]] and [[radar]]. Costas arrays can be regarded as two-dimensional cousins of the one-dimensional [[Golomb ruler]] construction, and, as well as being of mathematical interest, have similar applications in [[experimental design]] and [[phased array]] radar engineering.

Enumeration of known Costas arrays to order 200,{{sfnp|Beard|2006}} order 500{{sfnp|Beard|2008}} and to order 1030<ref>{{harvtxt|Beard|2017}}; {{citation|url=http://jameskbeard.com/jameskbeard/Files.html#CostasArrays|title=Files for Download: Costas Arrays|first=James K.|last=Beard|accessdate=2020-04-20}} </ref> are available. Although these lists and databases of these Costas arrays are likely near complete, other Costas arrays with orders above 29 that are not in these lists may exist. In general, the currently best known upper bound on the number <math>C(n)</math> of Costas Arrays of order <math>n</math> is of asymptotic form <math>C(n)/n! \le e^{-\Theta(n)}</math>.{{sfnp|Warnke|Correll|Swanson|2023}}
