The $T_{4}$ and $G_{4}$ constructions of Costas arrays

Abstract

We examine two particular constructions of Costas arrays known as the Taylor variant of the Lempel construction, or the $T_{4}$ construction, and the variant of the Golomb construction, or the $G_{4}$ construction. We connect these constructions with the concept of Fibonacci primitive roots, and show that under the Extended Riemann Hypothesis the $T_{4}$ and $G_{4}$ constructions are valid infinitely often.
