Let $p>3$ be a prime and $(\frac{.}{p})$ be the Legendre symbol. For any integer $d$ with $p\nmid d$ and any positive integer $m$, Sun introduced the determinants…

Let $p$ be a prime and $c,d\in\mathbb{Z}$. Sun introduced the determinant $D_p^-(c,d):=\det[(i^2+cij+dj^2)^{p-2}]_{1<i,j<p-1}$ for $p>3$. In this paper, we confirm three conjectures on $D_p^-(c,d)$ proposed by Zhi-Wei Sun.

The evaluations of determinants with Legendre symbol entries have close relation with character sums over finite fields. Recently, Sun posed some conjectures on this topic. In this paper, we prove some conjectures of Sun and also study some…

We prove a strengthened form of a conjecture of Sun on a determinant attached to a binary quadratic form. Let $n>3$ and let $c,d\in\Z$. If $n$ is composite, then \[ \det\big[(i^2+cij+dj^2)^{n-2}\big]_{0\leq i,j\leq n-1}\equiv 0\pmod {n^2}…

In this paper, we prove a conjecture of the second author by evaluating the determinant $$\det\left[x+\left(\frac{i-j}p\right)+\left(\frac ip\right)y+\left(\frac jp\right)z+\left(\frac{ij}p\right)w\right]_{0\le i,j\le(p-3)/2}$$ for any odd…

In this paper we study some conjectures on determinants with Jacobi symbol entries posed by Z.-W. Sun. For any positive integer $n\equiv3\pmod4$, we show that $$(6,1)_n=[6,1]_n=(3,2)_n=[3,2]_n=0$$ and…

For an odd prime $p$ and integers $d, k, m$ with gcd$(p,d)=1$ and $2\leq k\leq \frac{p-1}{2}$, we consider the determinant \begin{equation*} S_{m,k}(d,p) = \left|(\alpha_i - \alpha_j)^m\right|_{1 \leq i,j \leq \frac{p-1}{k}},…

Determinants with Legendre symbol entries have close relations with character sums and elliptic curves over finite fields. In recent years, Sun, Krachun and his cooperators studied this topic. In this paper, we confirm some conjectures…

Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $d\in\mathbb Z$ with $p\nmid d$. For the determinants $$S_m(d,p)=\det\left[(i^2+dj^2)^{m}\right]_{1\leqslant i,j \leqslant (p-1)/2}\ \ \left(\frac{p-1}2\leqslant m\leqslant p-1\right),$$ Sun recently determined…

In this paper we evaluate several determinants involving quadratic residues modulo primes. For example, for any prime $p>3$ with $p\equiv3\pmod4$ and $a,b\in\mathbb Z$ with $p\nmid ab$, we prove that $$\det\left[ 1+\tan\pi\frac{aj^2+bk^2}p…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. For any $b,c\in\mathbb{Z}$, Z.-W. Sun introduced the new-type determinant $$D_p(b,c)=|(i^2+bij+cj^2)^{p-2}|_{1\leqslant i,j\leqslant p-1},$$ and studied its arithmetic properties. In this paper we mainly prove that…

In this paper we mainly focus on some determinants with Legendre symbol entries. Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $(\frac{\cdot}p)$ be the Legendre symbol. We show that $(\frac{-S(d,p)}p)=1$ for any $d\in\mathbb Z$ with $(\frac dp)=1$, and…

In this paper, we study arithmetic properties of certain determinants involving powers of $i^2+cij+dj^2$, where $c$ and $d$ are integers. For example, for any odd integer $n>1$ with $(\frac dn)=-1$ we prove that $\det […

Let $p$ be an odd prime. For $b,c\in\mathbb Z$, Sun introduced the determinant $$D_p(b,c)=\left|(i^2+bij+cj^2)^{p-2}\right|_{1\leqslant i,j \leqslant p-1},$$ and investigated the Legendre symbol $(\frac{D_p(b,c)}p)$. Recently Wu, She and Ni…

In this paper we investigate determinants whose entries are linear combinations of Legendre symbols. We deduce some new results in this direction; for example, we prove that for any prime $p\equiv3\pmod4$ we have…

In this paper, we partly prove a supercongruence conjectured by Z.-W. Sun in 2013. Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $a\in\mathbb{Z}^{+}$. Then if $p\equiv1\pmod3$, we have \begin{align*}…

We confirm several conjectures of Sun involving quadratic residues modulo odd primes. For any prime $p\equiv 1\pmod 4$ and integer $a\not\equiv0\pmod p$, we prove that \begin{align*}&(-1)^{|\{1\le k<\frac p4:\ (\frac kp)=-1\}|}\prod_{1\le…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $(\frac{\cdot}p)$ be the Legendre symbol. In this paper, we study the determinant $$\det\left[\left(\frac{j^2-k^2}p\right)+\left(\frac{jk}p\right)w\right]_{\delta\le j,k\le (p-1)/2}$$ with $\delta\in\{0,1\}$.…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $x$ be an indeterminate. Recently, Z.-W. Sun proposed the following conjecture: $$\det\left[x+\left(\frac{j-i}{p}\right)\right]_{0\le i,j\le \frac{p-1}{2}}=\begin{cases} (\frac{2}{p})pb_px-a_p & \mbox{if}\…

We prove two determinant evaluations attached to Sun's conjectures on matrices of Legendre symbols. The first one resolves the \(p\equiv1\pmod4\) part of Conjecture 4.8(i) by reducing the determinant with four indeterminates to a four-entry…
