COMMENTS

In this paper it is proved, that for every prime number p, the set of cyclic p-roots in C^p is finite. Moreover the number of cyclic p-roots counted with multiplicity is equal to (2p-2)!/(p-1)!^2. In particular, the number of complex circulant Hadamard matrices of size p, with diagonal entries equal to 1, is less than or equal to (2p-2)!/(p-1)!^2.

FORMULA

a(n) = (2*p_n - 2)!/(p_n - 1)!^2 where p_n = prime(n) = A000040(n). a(n) = A000142(2*A000040(n)-2)/((A000142(A000040(n)-1)^2).
