Dodgon's determinant-evaluation rule proved by TWO-TIMING MEN and WOMEN
The electronic journal of combinatorics, The Wilf Festschrift volume, Tome 4 (1997) no. 2
I give a bijective proof of the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson's Rule: $$ \det \left [ (a_{i,j})_{ {1 \leq i \leq n } \atop {1 \leq j \leq n }} \right ] \cdot \det \left [ (a_{i,j})_{ {2 \leq i \leq n-1 } \atop {2 \leq j \leq n-1 }} \right ] \, = $$ $$ \det \left [ (a_{i,j})_{ {1 \leq i \leq n-1 } \atop {1 \leq j \leq n-1 }} \right ] \cdot \det \left [ (a_{i,j})_{ {2 \leq i \leq n } \atop {2 \leq j \leq n }} \right ] \,-\, \det \left [ (a_{i,j})_{ {1 \leq i \leq n-1 } \atop {2 \leq j \leq n }} \right ] \cdot \det \left [ (a_{i,j})_{ {2 \leq i \leq n } \atop {1 \leq j \leq n-1 }} \right ]\quad . $$
