Principal minors of Fourier matrices of square-free order

Abstract

Chebotarev's theorem on roots of unity states that all minors of a Fourier matrix are non-zero if and only if the order of the matrix is prime. We establish cases in which all principal minors of Fourier matrices of square-free order are non-zero. In a subsequent paper we discuss the case of composites containing squares.
