In mathematics, Brandt matrices are matrices, introduced by Brandt (1943), that are related to the number of ideals of given norm in an ideal class of a definite quaternion algebra over the rationals, and that give a representation of the Hecke algebra. {harvtxt|Eichler|1955}} calculated the traces of the Brandt matrices.
