Regular languages of matrices and their generating functions
My question is somewhat related to this question.
Let us fix natural numbers $k$ and $C$. Let $A$ be an automaton whose alphabet consists of $k\times k$ matrices with integer coefficients of ...

Matrix of high rank mod $2$: must it have a large non-singular minor (with disjoint rows and columns)?
Let $A$ be a $2n$-by-$2n$ matrix with entries in
$\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ such that, for every $2n$-by-$2n$ diagonal
matrix $D$ with entries in $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$, the matrix $A+D$
has rank $\...

Legendre's three-square theorem and squared norm of integer matrices
Let $\mathbb{N}$ be the set of non-negative integers. Let $E_n$ be the set of integers which are the sum of $n$ squares. Let $F_n$ be the set of integers of the form $\Vert A \Vert^2$ with $A \in M_n(...

Are extremal tournament matrices always circulant or 'almost circulant'?
Define an antisymmetric 1-x-matrix as an $n\times n$ matrix $M=(m_{ij})$ with $m_{ii}=0$ and $\{m_{ij},m_{ji}\}=\{1,x\}$ for all $1\le i<j\le n$. Call their set $\mathcal A_n$.
The setup is as ...

Prime Hadamard matrices
Assume that $n$ is a sufficiently large number. Is there a Hadamard matrix $H_{4n \times 4n}=(h_{ij})$ with the last row and the last cloumn $J$ (thet is, for every $k$, $h_{k,4n}=1$ and $h_{4n, k}=1$)...

Numbers of positive terms in polynomials equal A069999
Let $a(n)$ be A069999 (i.e., number of possible dimensions for commutators of $n \times n$ matrices; it is independent of the field). OEIS states that no generating function is known.
Let $P(n,k)$ be ...

Simple algorithm for A107670
Let $T(n, k)$ be A107670 (i.e., matrix square of triangle A107667). Here we define the triangular matrix $P$ by $P(n, k) = \frac{(n+1)^{2(n-k)}}{(n-k)!}$ for $0 \leqslant k \leqslant n$ and the ...

Number of ways to place 4 kings on nxn chessboard
I have a $n\times n$ chessboard and 4 kings inside it. My goal is to count the number of arrangements where some of them are non-attacking or mutually attacking, for example:
In the case where the $4$...
