$\begingroup$ Another method to show the "only if " direction is to use the fact that the trace of $\zeta_n$ is equal to zero if n is not square free, while by definition, the trace of $\zeta_n$ in this case is exactly the same as the sum of all the primitive n-th roots of unity, so we have a linearly dependent relation over $\mathbb{Q}$ for.

A monumental accomplishment in the history of non-Western mathematics, The Chinese Roots of Linear Algebra explains the fundamentally visual way Chinese mathematicians understood and solved mathematical problems. It argues convincingly that what the West "discovered" in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries had already been known to the Chinese for 1, years.

Roger Hart‘s The Chinese Roots of Linear Algebra (Johns Hopkins University Press, ) is the first book-length study of linear algebra in imperial China, and is based on an astounding combination of erudition and expertise in both Chinese history and the practice and history of linear algebra.

The Chinese Roots of Linear Algebra explains the fundamentally visual way Chinese mathematicians understood and solved mathematical problems.

It argues convincingly that what the West "discovered" in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries had already been known to the Chinese for 1, years. A book I have recently completed, Chinese Roots of Linear Algebra, shows that the methods taught today in modern linear algebra can be found in mathematical texts in early imperial China.

More specifically, in modern linear algebra there are two fundamentally different methods for solving systems of n linear equations in n unknowns: Gaussian elimination and determinants.

And they’ve generally been isomorphic (the same) and not particularly inspiring. So I’m going with speculation here - in terms of what I think.
