Let $A=[a_{ij}]_n=begin{bmatrix}a_{11}&a_{12}&a_{13}&...&a_{1n}\a_{21}&a_{22}&a_{23}&...&a_{2n}\vdots&vdots&vdots&&vdots\a_{n1}&a_{n2}&a_{n3}&...&a_{nn}end{bmatrix}_n$



Now, $a_{ij}=0$ where the $x$ columns cross the $y$ rows. In totality, we have $xy$ number of $0$s. We know that the determinant of a matrix gets multiplied by $-1$ on interchange of any two rows/columns, but its magnitude is unchanged. We can use elementary row and column interchanges to gather/cluster all the above zeroes together. The transformed matrix $A'$ looks like this:



$A'=begin{bmatrix}0_{ytimes x}&B_{ytimes(n-x)}\C_{(n-y)times x}&D_{(n-y)times(n-x)}end{bmatrix}_n$



where $0_{ytimes x}$ is the zero matrix of indicated order.



Also note that $det A'=(-1)^kcdotdet A$ or $|det A'|=|det A|$



Observe that the rows of $B$ are linearly dependent, since $y$ rows/vectors in $n-x(<y)$ dimesional vector space cannot be linearly independent. This means the rows/vectors of the submatrix $begin{bmatrix}0&Bend{bmatrix}_{ytimes n}$ are linearly dependent. This means $det A'=0impliesdet A=0$.

    If I rightly understand your question, I have a solution:



    Consider
    $$det A = det
    begin{pmatrix}
    O& B\
    C& D
    end{pmatrix}
    $$
    where $O$ is a $xtimes y$ zero matrix, $B$ is a $(n-x)times y$ matrix, $C$ is a $xtimes(n-y)$ matrix and $D$ is a $(n-x)times(n-y)$ matrix. Notice that $y>n-x$, so the rank of $B$ is no more than $n-x$ and hence the first $y$ lines of $A$ must be linearly dependent, which implies that $det{A}=0$.



    In general, by alternating rows and columns, every determine of $A$ satisfies the given condition can be transfer to the form above (or the opposite number of it).
