Abstract
Recently, a two-term recurrence for the determinant of a general matrix has been found [T. Sogabe, On a two-term recurrence for the determinant of a general matrix, Appl. Math. Comput., 187 (2007) 785–788] and it leads to a natural generalization of the DETGTRI algorithm [M. El-Mikkawy, A fast algorithm for evaluating nth order tridiagonal determinants, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 166 (2004) 581–584] for computing the determinant of a tridiagonal matrix. In this paper, we derive a fast numerical algorithm for computing the determinant of a pentadiagonal matrix from the generalization of the DETGTRI algorithm.
