(1) Apparently it was in 1854 that Hermite first drew attention to the special determinant which now bears his name. It may be defined as being such that every two of its elements that are conjugate in position are conjugate-complex in form: and as a consequence its matrix is the sum of two matrices one of which is axisymmetric and the other zero-axial skew.
