Abstract
Let be a graph(directed or undirected) having number of blocks. A -partition of is a partition into vertex-disjoint subgraph such that is induced subgraph of for The terms are det-summands and per-summands, respectively, corresponding to the -partition. The determinant and permanent of a graph having no loops on its cut-vertices is equal to summation of det-summands and per-summands, respectively, corresponding to all possible -partitions. Thus, in this paper we calculate determinant and permanent of some graphs, which include block graph with negatives cliques, signed unicyclic graph, mix complete graph, negative mix complete graph, and star mix block graphs.
