  ### Verifying whether a number is the determinant of a matrix
  
  What is the (computationally) fastest way to determine whether a number is the determinant of a given real matrix? I am wondering if I have an upper bound on the absolute value of the determinant of ...

  ### How to find the determinant of a parallelogram using the vertices. (Using a matrix)
  
  What it says on the tin. I already know how to find the determinant of a parallelogram using the vector components in a matrix, however, I am curious if there is a way to do it simply through the ...

  ### If $BA$ has $-1$ as an eigenvalue, then so does $AB$?
  
  I was just encountered with a rather tough problem as follows: Suppose $A,B\in M_n(\mathbb R)$, prove: $$\det(I_n+AB)\ne0\Rightarrow\det(I_n+BA)\ne0$$ Although at this moment I am still at a ...

  ### Finding determinant of a 4x4 matrix
  
  I am trying to find the determinant of this matrix but was told by my teacher that we wouldn't need to find the determinant of more than $3\times 3$ matrices so I am guessing there is a way of solving ...

  ### Can you prove My conjecture about Invertiblity of the Derivative Matrix ?! (to use Inverse function Theorem)
  
  In the Analysis2 midterm exam, we had the following problem: Let the equation $a_nx^n+\cdots+a_1x+a_0=0$ has $n$ simple real roots (distinct) $\{\alpha_1,\cdots,\alpha_n\}$. Prove that the above ...

  ### How do you find the determinant of this $(n-1)\times (n-1)$ matrix?
  
  It's for a proof of Cayley's Formula, I know I'm being dumb and can't see it, how do I find the determinant of this $(n-1)\times (n-1)$ matrix where the diagonal entries are $n-1$ and the off diagonal ...

  ### Value of determinant using given conditions.
  
  Let $A$ be a $2$ x $2$ matrix with real entries and $det(A)$ is equal to $d$ which is non-zero. It is given that $det(A +d(adjA))=0$ where $adj$ stands for the adjoint of the matrix. We have to find ...

  ### Problems with the inverse of a banded matrix: not invertible?
  
  I am creating with a software a banded matrix, which is also symmetric. In fact, its definition comes from an array, Array[q], whose length is ...

  ### Why is determinant called volume of the fundamental parallelepiped in geometry of numbers?
  
  Let $v_1, ..., v_n$ be $n$ linearly independent vectors in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Then they form a lattice $\Lambda \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and the volume of the fundamental domain is $|\det A|$, where $A$ ...
