In this paper, we deal mainly with a class of periodic tridiagonal Toeplitz matrices with perturbed corners. By matrix decomposition with the Sherman–Morrison–Woodbury formula and constructing the corresponding displacement of matrices we derive the formulas on representation of the determinants and inverses of the periodic tridiagonal Toeplitz matrices with perturbed corners of type I in the form of products of Fermat numbers and some initial values. Furthermore, the properties of type II matrix can be also obtained, which benefits from the relation between type I and II matrices. Finally, we propose two algorithms for computing these properties and make some analysis about them to illustrate our theoretical results.

In this paper, we study periodic tridiagonal Toeplitz matrices with perturbed corners. By using some matrix transformations, the Schur complement and matrix decompositions techniques, as well as the Sherman-Morrison-Woodbury formula, we derive explicit determinants and inverses of these matrices. One feature of these formulas is the connection with the famous Mersenne numbers. We also propose two algorithms to illustrate our formulas.
