A339105 Consider all 3 X 3 matrices M whose entries are the n-th to (n+8)-th primes prime(n), ..., prime(n+8), in any order. a(n) is the sum of the number of M such that det(M) is divisible by prime(n+i), for i from 0 to 8. 1

%N Consider all 3 X 3 matrices M whose entries are the n-th to (n+8)-th primes prime(n), ..., prime(n+8), in any order. a(n) is the sum of the number of M such that det(M) is divisible by prime(n+i), for i from 0 to 8.

%C By symmetry (permutation of rows and of columns, and transposition) all terms are divisible by 72.

%C Presumably most entries are 0 when n is large. The first occurrence of 0 is a(1229).

%e For n=1, one of the matrices is

%e [ 2 3 5 ]

%e [ 7 11 13 ]

%e [ 17 19 23 ]

%e which has determinant -78. This is divisible by three of the primes forming the matrix's entries, namely 2, 3 and 13, so it contributes 3 to a(n).

%p f:= proc(n) local M,P,p;

%p p:= [seq(ithprime(n+i),i=0..8)];

%p P:= map(t -> [p[1],op(t)], select(t -> t[1] < t[2] and t[3] < t[6] and t[1] < t[3],combinat:-permute(p[2..9])));

%p M:= map(t -> LinearAlgebra:-Determinant(Matrix(3,3,t)), P);

%p 72*numboccur(0, [seq(seq(M[i] mod p[j],i=1..5040),j=1..9)])

%p end proc:

%p map(f, [$1..50]);
