COMMENT

Determinant of n-th order matrix (irrespective of sign) = rightmost term of n-th order polynomial.

FORMULA

n-th row of the triangle is the characteristic polynomial of n-th order (n=N), Z/NZ addition table considered as a matrix.

EXAMPLE

Addition table Z/3Z = [0,1,2; 1,2,0; 2,0,1]. Considered as a matrix, the charpoly = x^3 - 3x^2 - 3x + 9.

First few charpolys are:

x;

x^2 - 1;

x^3 - 3x^2 - 3x + 9;

x^4 - 4x^3 - 20x^2 + 32x + 96;

x^5 - 10x^4 - 25x^3 + 250x^2 + 125x - 1250;

x^6 - 12x^5 - 93x^4 + 576x^3 + 2592x^2 - 5194x - 19440;

x^7 - 21x^6 - 98x^5 + 2058x^3 - 50421x^2 - 16807x + 352947;

x^8 - 24x^7 - 272x^6 + 3840x^5 + 24064x^4 - 147456x^3 - 753664x^2 + 1572864x + 7340032;
