%N A086569 Product of the nonzero eigenvalues of the circulant matrix whose rows 
               are formed by successively rotating a vector of binomial coefficients 
               right. Generalization of A048954.
%C A086569 In sequence A048954, a determinant of a circulant matrix, a(n) = 0 when 
               6 divides n. The determinant of a matrix can be interpreted as the 
               signed volume of a simplex whose vertices are given by the rows of 
               the matrix. For n a multiple of 6, the points form a lower dimensional 
               simplex that has zero volume in n-space. However, the volume in n-2 
               space is positive and is given by the product of the nonzero eigenvalues.
