On absolute moments of characteristic polynomials of a certain class of   complex random matrices
  Integer moments of the spectral determinant $|\det(zI-W)|^2$ of complex random matrices $W$ are obtained in terms of the characteristic polynomial of the Hermitian matrix $WW^*$ for the class of matrices $W=AU$ where $A$ is a given matrix and $U$ is random unitary. This work is motivated by studies of complex eigenvalues of random matrices and potential applications of the obtained results in this context are discussed.
