On a problem for determinants associated to Cartan matrices of certain algebras
Ok, thanks (sorry, I should have noticed that). An amazing solution!

Small correction to Thm. 1 (I think): $\det(I+Z+\ldots+Z^{\omega(C)-1})$ will be $0$ if $1<\gcd(\omega(C),n)<n$ (so that you can get determinant $0$ also in the connected case).

Concerning conjecture 1: is it obvious or easy that the given maxima can be reached? Or is it part of the problem?

Yes, you are right. Apologies for being sloppy. I'll correct it.

Classification of algebras of finite global dimension via determinants of certain 0-1-matrices
I have just corrected a sign, but nothing essential has changed. The structure of the formula is easy to explain, but I don't see why only the factors +1 and -1 appear. If I don't have a new idea tomorrow I'll post the conjecture.

You're welcome. Yes, I think it will get more attention with the tags "linear algebra" and "determinants". Feel free to post it - in a sense it is your conjecture (as follow-up of this post).

A question of Ahlswede and Katona: known lower bounds on $\beta(d,n)$?
@Clement C.:I'm surprised that you didn't correct the factor $\tfrac{1}{4}$ in (4) and (5) (you can easily check that in [3] Althöfer/Sillke use definition (1) and give the inequality with factor $\tfrac{1}{2}$). Let me know if I can improve the answer to something useful, in particular if anything is unclear, false, or too succinct.
