A hypercube with even dimension can be represented by a square matrix that preserves some of the hypercubes symmetry.

With binary entries these matrices can represent Boolean functions. See subcategory Binary square matrices representing sets of (2*n)-cube vertices.

This category could contain all kinds of matrices representing 2n-cubes. But most are like those in Square matrices representing 2n-cubes (image set), which have aspects of a Hasse diagram.
