چکیده

In an earlier paper (Adv. Appl. Math. 29 (2002), 137–151) on the determinants of certain period matrices, we formulated a conjecture about the determinant of a certain hypergeometric matrix. In this article, we establish this conjecture by constructing a system of linear equations in which that determinant is one of the variables. As a consequence, we obtain the value of an integral which generalizes the well-known multidimensional beta integral of A. Selberg (Norsk. Mat. Tidsskr. 26, 71–78) and some hypergeometric determinant formulas of A. Varchenko (Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR Ser. Mat. 53 (1989), 1206–1235; 54 (1990), 146–158).

Generalization of Dodgson's "Virtual Center" Method; an Efficient Method for Determinant Calculation

Charles Dodgson (1866) introduced a method to calculate matrices determinant, in asimple way. The method was highly attractive, however, if the sub-matrix or the mainmatrix determination is divided by zero, it would not provide the correct answer. Thispaper explains the Dodgson method's structure and provides a solution for the problemof "dividing by zero" called "virtua...
