If $A$ and $B$ are hypermatrices of order $q+1$ with dimension $ntimescdotstimes n$ and considering the elements of the product $AB$ as
beginequation*
AB_i_1cdots i_qj_2cdots j_q+1 = sum_k=1^n A_i_1cdots i_qkB_kj_2cdots j_q+1,,
endequation*
can I say that the hyperdeterminant $det AB = det A det B$ ? In other words, can this usual property of square matrices be generalized to cubic hypermatrices such as $A$, $B$ and $AB$?
