摘要
A family of n x n symmetric circulant (0, 1) matrices is studied. It is shown that the determinant of each matrix is (-1)(n-1)(n - 1), a property shared with the adjacency matrix of the complete graph on n nodes. As a result, each matrix in this family generates an incomplete graph that forms a counterexample to a recent conjecture. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
