COMMENT

The determinant of the nxn Redheffer matrix is given by Merten's function A002321(n).

For n>1, replacing a(n,n) with 0 in the Redheffer matrix and taking the determinant gives moebius(n)=A008683(n). The number of permutations with non-zero contribution to this determinant is given by A002033. For first few n, these permutations are shown in the sequences A144193 to A144201. [From Mats O. Granvik (mats.granvik(AT)abo.fi), Sep 14 2008]

The determinant that is the Moebius function was discovered by reading the blog post "The Mobius function is strongly orthogonal to nilsequences" by Terence Tao. [From Mats Granvik (mats.granvik(AT)abo.fi), Jan 24 2009]

FORMULA

a(i,j) = 1 if j=1 or j|i; 0 otherwise.

PROGRAM

(Excel cell formula) =if(mod(column(); row())=0; 1; if(column()=1; 1; 0)). Produces the Redheffer matrix.

(PARI) { a(i, j) = (j==1) || (j%i==0); }
