Determinants concerning Legendre symbols
The evaluations of determinants with Legendre symbol entries have close relation with character sums over finite fields. Recently, Sun posed some conjectures on this topic. In this paper, we prove…

On some determinants involving the tangent function
Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $a,b\in\mathbb Z$ with $p\nmid ab$. In this paper we mainly evaluate $$T_p^{(\delta)}(a,b):=\det\left[\tan\pi\frac{aj^2+bk^2}p\right]_{\delta\le j,k\le (p-1)/2}\ \…
On some determinants involving cyclotomic units
For each odd prime $p$, let $\zeta_p$ denote a primitive $p$-th root of unity. In this paper, we study the determinants of some matrices with cyclotomic unit entries. For instance, we show that when…
Elliptic curves over finite fields and determinants with Legendre symbol entries.
Determinants with Legendre symbol entries have close relations with character sums and elliptic curves over finite fields. In recent years, Sun, Krachun and his cooperators studied this topic. In…
Sums and products of quadratic residues and related identities
In this paper we study some sums and products of quadratic residues modulo odd primes and prove some identities involving quadratic residues. For instance, let $p$ be an odd prime. We prove that if $…
Quadratic residues and quartic residues modulo primes
In this paper we study some products related to quadratic residues and quartic residues modulo primes. Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $A$ be any integer. We mainly determine completely the product…
Quadratic residues and related permutations concerning cyclotomic fields
Let $p$ be an odd prime. For any $p$-adic integer $a$ we let $a\ (p)$ denote the unique integer $x$ with $-p/2 2$ be a positive integers. $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_n)$ denotes the $n$-th cyclotomic field,…
A conjecture of Zhi-Wei Sun on determinants over finite fields
In this paper, we study certain determinants over finite fields. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements and let $a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_{q-1}$ be all nonzero elements of $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let…

Extending the Zolotarev–Frobenius approach to quadratic reciprocity
In 1872, Zolotarev observed that the Legendre symbol $$\left( \frac{a}{p}\right) $$ap is the sign of the permutation of $$\mathbb Z/p\mathbb Z$$Z/pZ induced by multiplication by $$a$$a and used this…
A remark on Zoloterav's theorem
Let n>=3 be an odd integer. For any integer a prime to n, define the permutation gamma_{a,n} of {1,...,(n-1)/2} by gamma_{a,n}(x)=n-\dec{ax}_n if {ax}_n>=(n+1)/2, and {ax}_n if {ax}_n<=(n-1)/2, where…
A Remark on Zoloterav's Theorem
Let n ≥ 3 be an odd integer. For any integer a prime to n, define the permutation γ a,n of {1,. .. , (n − 1)/2} by γ a,n (x) = n − {ax} n if {ax} n ≥ (n + 1)/2, {ax} n if {ax} n ≤ (n − 1)/2, where…

On R. Chapman's "evil determinant": case p=1 (mod 4)
For p=1 (mod 4), we prove the formula (conjectured by R. Chapman) for the determinant of the matrix C with C(i,j)=LegendreSymbol(j-i,p), i,j=0,...,(p-1)/2.

A key role in our story is played by group characters. Recall that a character X of a finite Abelian group G is a homomorphism from G into C*, the multiplicative group of nonzero complex numbers. The…
