Our bounds improve on earlier results of de Launey and Levin (2010) and, for certain congruence classes of n mod 4, those of Koukouvinos, Mitrouli and Seberry (2000). In an Appendix we give a new proof, using Jacobi's determinant identity, of a result of Sz\\\"oll\\H{o}si (2010) on minors of Hadamard matrices.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v6", "updated": "2013-04-14T10:57:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05B20", "15A15", "15B34", "62K05" ], "keywords": [ "general lower bounds", "maximal determinant", "binary matrices", "jacobis determinant identity", "hadamard conjecture" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1208.1805B" } } }
