What are all the possibilities of $A$ s.t. $\det(A)=k$?

Suppose we have $A \in M_3(\Bbb N\cup\{0\})$ s.t. sum of the elements of each row is $k $ for some fixed $k\in \Bbb N\cup\{0\}$. What are all the possibilities of $A$ s.t. $\det(A)=k$? We can start ...

Maximize the determinant of Boolean combinations of positive definite matrices

I have the following optimization problem. $$\begin{array}{ll} \text{maximize} & \det \left(\sum^n_{i=1}z_i W_i \right)\\ \text{subject to} & \sum_{i=1}^n z_i = N\\ & z_i \in \{0,1\}\end{...

Distribution of maximum minor of a random matrix with one special column

Given $m,n,\ell\in\Bbb N$ and $\beta\in(0,1)$ consider the uniformly picked random matrix $A\in\Bbb Z^{n\times (n+1)}$ with $0\neq|\mathsf{det}(A^\circ)|\leq m^{\frac 1\ell}$ where $A^\circ$ is the ...
