Maximizing the determinant for a special class of block-partitioned matrices
Let \(\mathcal L\) be the set of \(NJ \times NJ\) positive definite block matrices \(Q = [Q_{ij}]\), \(i,j =1,2,\dots,J\), where \(Q_{ij}\in\mathbb R^{N\times N}\), \(\text{tr}(Q_{ij}) = E_{ij}\) and \(E_{ij}\) are given constants. The authors prove that the maximum of \(\det(Q)\) over \(\mathcal L\) is \(N^{-NJ}(\det(E))^N\) and is achieved for \(Q_{ij} = (E_{ij}/N)I_N\), where \(E = [E_{ij}]\in\mathbb R^{J\times J}\) and \(I_N\) is the \(N\times N\) identity matrix. The maximum determinant of a sum of Kronecker products of matrices is also obtained.
