Abstract
We prove, in the case of hyperbolic 3-space, a couple of conjectures raised by J. J. Seidel in "On the volume of a hyperbolic simplex", Stud. Sci. Math. Hung. 21, 243-249, 1986. These conjectures concern expressing the volume of an ideal hyperbolic tetrahedron as a monotonic function of algebraic maps. More precisely, Seidel's first conjecture states that the volume of an ideal tetrahedron in hyperbolic 3-space is determined by (the permanent and the determinant of) the doubly stochastic Gram matrix of its vertices; Seidel's fourth conjecture claims that the mentioned volume is a monotonic function of both the permanent and the determinant of .
