I keep reading about a proposed method of finding solutions to the $n$-queens problem using determinants, but I can't find any specific details anywhere. Can somebody explain to me how to find solutions to $n$-queens using determinants or point me in the right direction?

    I'm guessing it all started with [this paper](http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/14786447408641150)...2011-09-24
