COMMENTS
Alternatively, n is congruent to 1 (mod 4) with at least 2 distinct prime factors congruent to 3 (mod 4) in the squarefree part of n. - Comment corrected by Jean-Christophe Hervé, Oct 25 2015
Applications to the theory of optimal weighing designs and maximal determinants: An (n+1) X (n+1) conference matrix is impossible.
The upper bound of Ehlich/Wojtas on the determinant of a (0,1) matrix of order congruent to 1 (mod 4) cannot be achieved for n X n matrices.
The bound of Ehlich/Wojtas on the determinant of a (-1,1) matrix of order congruent to 2 (mod 4) cannot be achieved for (n+1) X (n+1) matrices.
Numbers with only odd prime factors, of which a strictly positive even number are raised to an odd power and congruent to 3 (mod 4). - Jean-Christophe Hervé, Oct 24 2015
