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.

Costas arrays on a [[hexagonal lattice]] are known as ''honeycomb arrays''. It has been shown that there are only finitely many such arrays, which must have an odd number of elements, arranged in the shape of a hexagon. Currently, 12 such arrays (up to symmetry) are known, which has been conjectured to be the total number.<ref>{{Cite journal|
