How to calculate the $frac{partial det(mathbf X)}{partial mathbf X}$ and $frac{partial tr(mathbf X^n)}{partial mathbf X}$ by using Frobenius product?i tried to begin the calculation,but i stuck here at once



$ det(mathbf X)=I_{mn}:X$ and $ tr(mathbf X^n)=I_{mn}:X^n$,but i don't know how to calculate it.

          Let's start by finding the gradient of a small concrete example.
          $$eqalign{
          phi &= {rm tr}(X^3) = I:X^3 cr
          dphi
          &= I:(dX,X,X+X,dX,X+X,X,dX) cr
          &= X^TX^T:dX + X^TX^T:dX + X^TX^T:dX cr
          &= (3X^2)^T:dX cr
          frac{partialphi}{partial X} &= (3X^{2})^T cr
          }$$

          This can be immediately extended to higher powers and scalar coefficients.
          $$eqalign{
          phi &= {rm tr}(alpha X^k) cr
          dphi &= (nalpha X^{k-1})^T:dX cr
          frac{partialphi}{partial X} &= (kalpha X^{k-1})^T cr
          }$$

          Then extended again to any function expressed as a power series.
          $$eqalign{
          F &= sum_kalpha_kX^k implies
          F' &= sum_kkalpha_kX^{k-1} cr
          phi &= {rm tr}(F) cr
          dphi &= (F')^T:dX cr
          frac{partialphi}{partial X} &= (F')^T crcr
          }$$

          To handle the determinant, consider the following
          $$eqalign{
          exp({rm tr}(X)) &=
          expBig(sum_klambda_kBig) =
          prod_kexp(lambda_k) =
          det(exp(X)) cr
          {rm tr}(X) &= log(det(exp(X))) cr
          }$$

          Now assume $X=log(Y)$ in which case $Y=exp(X)$ and
          $$
          {rm tr}(log(Y)) = log(det(Y))
          $$

          This allows us to use the above trace-trick to find the gradient of
          $$eqalign{
          phi &= log(det(X)) = {rm tr}(log(X)) cr
          dphi &= (X^{-1})^T:dX cr
          frac{partialphi}{partial X} &= (X^{-1})^T cr
          }$$

          To find the gradient of the determinant, note that the preceding was a logarithmic derivative, so
          $$eqalign{
          frac{partialphi}{partial X}
          &= frac{tfrac{partial,det(X)}{partial X}}{det(X)} cr
          frac{partial,det(X)}{partial X} &= det(X),(X^{-1})^T cr
          }$$

                {rm tr}(log(Y)) = log(det(Y))
                $$

                This allows us to use the above trace-trick to find the gradient of
                $$eqalign{
                phi &= log(det(X)) = {rm tr}(log(X)) cr
                dphi &= (X^{-1})^T:dX cr
                frac{partialphi}{partial X} &= (X^{-1})^T cr
                }$$

                To find the gradient of the determinant, note that the preceding was a logarithmic derivative, so
                $$eqalign{
                frac{partialphi}{partial X}
                &= frac{tfrac{partial,det(X)}{partial X}}{det(X)} cr
                frac{partial,det(X)}{partial X} &= det(X),(X^{-1})^T cr
                }$$
