Let \(A,B\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}\) be positive definite. Minkowski's determinant inequality (also known as the matrix form of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality) states that \[ (\det{(A+B)})^\frac{1}{n}\ge(\det{A})^\frac{1}{n}+(\det{B})^\frac{1}{n}. \] It has several refinements and generalizations. Some of them are extended to sector matrices. A matrix \(M\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}\) is a sector matrix if its numerical range \[ w(M)\subset\{z\in\mathbb{C}:\Re z>0,|\Im z|\le\Re z\tan{\alpha}\} \] for some \(\alpha\in[0,\frac{\pi}{2})\). The present authors give a new extension, improving that of \textit{J. Liu} [Linear Algebra Appl. 508, 206--213 (2016; Zbl 1344.15009)]. An immediate consequence of Minkowski's determinant inequality is \[ \det{(A+B)}\ge\det{A}+\det{B}. \] Also this inequality has several refinements and generalizations. The present authors again give a new extension to sector matrices, improving that of \textit{M. Lin} [Arch. Math. 104, 93--100 (2015; Zbl 1391.15070)].
