How to prove the following equation (which involves binomials and determinant of 2×2 matrices)?

I have tried many ways to prove the following equation, such as the method of induction and expanding all the terms in the summation,but things got more complicated.I could not find an appropriate ...

Reference request for some determinants of binomial coefficients

Let $C_{n}=\binom{2n}{n}\frac{1}{n+1}$ be a Catalan number. I am interested in books or papers where the following identities occur: $$\det\left(\binom{i+j+1}{i-j+1}\right)_{0 \leq i,j\leq {n-1}}=C_{n}...

Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the matrix with entries $\dbinom{n+1}{2j-i}$ for $i, j = 1, 2, \ldots, n$

Let $n$ be a nonnegative integer, and let $B$ be the $n \times n$-matrix (over the rational numbers) whose $\left(i, j\right)$-th entry is $\dbinom{n+1}{2j-i}$ for all $i, j \in \left\{ 1, 2, \ldots, ...

Some more binomial coefficient determinants

The setup is similar to this question, but generalizes the size of the Hankel matrix. We'll define $$d(n,k,r):=\det\left(\binom{2i+2j+k+r}{i+j}\right)_{i,j=0}^{kn-1}.$$ Edit: Thanks to Johann ...

Some binomial coefficient determinants

It is well known that for $n>0$ $$d(n)=\det\left(\binom{2i+2j+1}{i+j}\right)_{i,j=0}^{n-1}=1.$$ Computer experiments suggest that more generally $$d(n,k)=\det\left(\binom{2i+2j+2k+1}{i+j}\right)_{i,...
