Needs details or clarity | |

There are examples of complicated determinants which count interesting quantities such as plane partitions with particular symmetries which can be expressed as $Det(A\pm I)$ where $A$ does not seem complicated, but where finding the characteristic polynomial of $A$ does not seem easy. | |
