COMMENTS

This majorizes the sequence of maximal determinants only up to the 6th term. It is conjectured that the sequence of maximal determinants majorizes this for all later terms. The 8th term has not been independently verified.

EXAMPLE

There is no 3 X 3 0-1 matrix with determinant 3, as such a matrix must have a row with at least one 0 in it.
