In this note we wish to study some properties of a square matrix of order n and of rank r,

whose coaxial minors |M| of certain orders, or some of them, are known to be zero. Our main results will lie in two directions, according as the vanishing minors are, within certain limits, of an arbitrary order (Part II) or of two consecutive orders only (Part III).
