چکیده
1 Three Axioms for a Determinant Function Let d be a scalar-valued function on the space Mn×n of all n×n matrices. Let A1, A2, . . . , An be the n rows of an n×n matrix A. We will denote the value d(A) of A under the function d as d(A) = d(A1, A2, . . . , An), indicating that d is a scalar-valued function of n n-dimensional row vectors A1, A2, . . . , An. The scalar-valued function d is called a determinant function of order n if it satisfies the following three axioms: Axiom 1. Homogeneity in each row . If matrix B is obtained from matrix A by multiplying one row, says the ith row, of A by a scalar α, then d(B) = α d(A), i.e., d(A1, . . . , αAi, . . . , An) = α d(A1, . . . , Ai, . . . , An).

Generalized matrix functions, determinant and permanent
In this paper, using permutation matrices or symmetric matrices, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a generalized matrix function to be the determinant or the permanent. We prove that a generalized matrix function is the determinant or the permanent if and only if it preserves the product of symmetric permutation matrices. Also we show that a generalized matrix function is the de...
متن کاملThe SpikerBox: A Low Cost, Open-Source BioAmplifier for Increasing Public Participation in Neuroscience Inquiry
Although people are generally interested in how the brain functions, neuroscience education for the public is hampered by a lack of low cost and engaging teaching materials. To address this, we developed an open-source tool, the SpikerBox, which is appropriate for use in middle/high school educational programs and by amateurs. This device can be used in easy experiments in which students insert...
متن کاملIntegration of Internet-Based Technologies as Learning Tools in a Pharmaceutical Calculations Course
The growing prevalence of telecomputing technologies presents instructors with a wide range of options for enhancing the learning experience of students in the Pharmaceutical Sciences and Pharmacy curricula, particularly in large-class settings. However, this wealth of technological resources consists largely of discrete tools developed for purposes other than instruction, and therefore instruc...
متن کاملPreference of distance learning methods among post-graduate occupational physicians and hygienists.
BACKGROUND The Centre for Occupational and Environmental Health at the University of Manchester has successfully run distance-learning courses for a number of decades. These are based on hundreds of pages of (paper-based) written text, specially commissioned, packaged and distributed in eight binders. Converting printed text to an online format has the potential to improve learning through the ...
متن کاملIs Computer-assisted Distance Learning Possible in Nematology?
In many institutions of higher education, introductory nematology is taught to small numbers of students. Nematology and other low-enrollment courses may be placed under scrutiny, reformatted, or dropped from the curriculum to cut costs and improve faculty efficiency. Computer-assisted distance education (CADE) offers a way to increase faculty productivity and job satisfaction, student learning...
