Abstract

Given a square, nonsingular matrix of univariate polynomials FK[x]n×n\mathbf{F}\in\mathbb{K}[x]^{n\times n} over a field K\mathbb{K}, we give a deterministic algorithm for finding the determinant of F\mathbf{F}. The complexity of the algorithm is \bigO(nωs)\bigO \left(n^{\omega}s\right) field operations where ss is the average column degree or the average row degree of F\mathbf{F}. Here \bigO\bigO notation is Big-OO with log factors omitted and ω\omega is the exponent of matrix multiplication.
