We generalize Gaeta's Theorem to the family of determinantal schemes. In other words, we show that the schemes defined by minors of a fixed size of a matrix with polynomial entries belong to the same G-biliaison class of a complete…

We give a combinatorial interpretation of the determinant of a matrix as a generating function over Brauer diagrams in two different but related ways. The sign of a permutation associated to its number of inversions in the Leibniz formula…

Some recent papers formulated sufficient conditions for the decomposition of matrix variances. A statement was that if we have one or two observables, then the decomposition is possible. In this paper we consider an arbitrary finite set of…

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}…

A combinatorial rectangle may be viewed as a matrix whose entries are all +-1. The discrepancy of an m by n matrix is the maximum among the absolute values of its m row sums and n column sums. In this paper, we investigate combinatorial…

We give a formula for the determinant of an $n\times n$ matrix with entries from a commutative ring with unit. The formula can be evaluated by a "straight-line program" performing only additions, subtractions and multiplications of ring…

We consider the following natural question. Given a matrix $A$ with i.i.d. random entries, what are the moments of the determinant of $A$? In other words, what is $\mathbb{E}[\det(A)^k]$? While there is a general expression for…

Let $M = (m_{ij})$ be an $n \times n$ square matrix of integers. For our purposes, we can assume without loss of generality that $M$ is homogeneous and that the entries are non-increasing going leftward and downward. Let $d$ be the sum of…

Let $d(N )$ (resp. $p(N )$) be the number of summands in the determinant (resp. permanent) of an $N\times N$ circulant matrix $A = (a_{ij} )$ given by $a_{ij} = X_{i+j}$ where $i + j$ should be considered $\mod N$ . This short note is…

We prove that $\det A\leq 6^\frac{n}{6}$ whenever $A\in\{0,1\}^{n\times n}$ contains at most $2n$ ones. We also prove an upper bound on the determinant of matrices with the $k$-consecutive ones property, a generalisation of the consecutive…

In this paper, we define a matrix which we call Vieta matrix and calculate its determinant: $$ \left( \begin{array}{cccc} 1&1&\cdots&1\\ a_{2}+a_{3}+\cdots+a_{n}&a_{1}+a_{3}+\cdots+a_{n}&\cdots&a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{n-1}\\…

A new matrix operation based on inserting columns and rows, similarly to the mediant operation between fractions, gives rise to the Farey determinants matrix or, equivalently, the matrix of the numerators of the differences of Farey…

In this paper, the determinants of $n\times n$ matrices over commutative finite chain rings and over commutative finite principal ideal rings are studied. The number of $n\times n$ matrices over a commutative finite chain ring ${R}$ of a…

In this article we provide with combinatorial proofs of some recent identities due to Sury and McLaughlin. We show that, the solution of a general linear recurrence with constant coefficients can be interpreted as a determinant of a matrix.…

The "unit theorem" to which the present mini-course is devoted is a theorem from algebra that has a combinatorial flavour, and that originated in fact from algebraic combinatorics. Beyond a proof, the course also addresses applications, one…

We give an elementary proof of a Caratheodory-type result on the invertibility of a sum of matrices, due first to Facchini and Barioli. The proof yields a polynomial identity, expressing the determinant of a large sum of matrices in terms…

We are interested in matrices of minors of order p of a invertible matrix. Special cases are studied when this matrix is in SL(n) or SO(n)

The study proves the existence of an algorithm to receive all elements of a class of binary matrices without obtaining redundant elements, e. g. without obtaining binary matrices that do not belong to the class. This makes it possible to…

In this paper, a class of combinatorial identities is proved. A method is used which is based on the following rule: counting elements of a given set in two ways and making equal the obtained results. This rule is known as "counting in two…

Recently there has been several works estimating the number of $n\times n$ matrices with elements from some finite sets $\mathcal X$ of arithmetic interest and of a given determinant. Typically such results are compared with the trivial…
