Abstract:

We found motivation for this paper in the conjectures about multi-diagonal determinants published in a few recent papers. Especially, we were interested in the case with a few non-zero elements in the lower left corner or/and in the upper right corner. Our research with changeable free elements lead us to the systems of partial differential equations. Also, we include some generalizations of the problems and conjectures.



Keywords:

Determinants, multi-diagonal, closed form.
