An n by n conference type matrix has O's on the main diagonal and +1's elsewhere. We investigate the largest possible determinant of such a matrix. The literature is extensive for n even, but for n odd the question has not been previously studied. We determine the maxima up to n = 11: for n = 3, 5,
Quivers of finite mutation type are certain directed graphs that first arised in Fomin-Zelevinsky's theory of cluster algebras. It has been observed that these quivers are also closely related with different areas of mathematics. In fact, main examples of finite mutation type quivers are the quivers
We completely describe the determinants of the sum of orbits of two real skew symmetric matrices, under similarity action of orthogonal group and the special orthogonal group, respectively. We also study the Pfaffian case and the complex case.
Szekeres has established the ex:stence of a skew-Hadamard malrix of order 2(9 + 1) in the case 9 = 5 (mods), a prime power. His method utilized complemlcntary difference sets in the elementary abelian group of order 9. The main result of this paper is to show that, for the same 9, there exist skew-H
