The permanent of an $n \times n$ matrix $M = (m_{ij})$ is defined as $\mathrm{per}(M) = \sum_{\sigma \in S_n} \prod_{i=1}^n m_{i,\sigma(i)}$, where $S_n$ denotes the symmetric group on $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. The permanental polynomial of $M$,…
We initiate a study of determinantal representations with symmetry. We show that Grenet's determinantal representation for the permanent is optimal among determinantal representations respecting left multiplication by permutation and…
Let F be a finite extension of Qp and G be GL(2,F). When V is the tensor product of three admissible, irreducible, finite dimensional representations of G, the space of G-invariant linear forms has dimension at most one. When a non zero…
In this paper, a new kind of resultant, called the determinantal resultant, is introduced. This operator computes the projection of a determinantal variety under suitable hypothesis. As a direct generalization of the resultant of a very…
The permanent of a square matrix is defined in a way similar to the determinant, but without using signs. The exact computation of the permanent is hard, but there are Monte-Carlo algorithms that can estimate general permanents. Given a…
In this note we settle two open problems in the theory of permanents by using recent results from other areas of mathematics. Bapat conjectured that certain quotients of permanents, which generalize symmetric function means, are concave. We…
We prove that for any $\lambda > 1$, fixed in advance, the permanent of an $n \times n$ complex matrix, where the absolute value of each diagonal entry is at least $\lambda$ times bigger than the sum of the absolute values of all other…
We present a finite-order system of recurrence relations for a permanent of circulant matrices containing a band of k any-value diagonals on top of a uniform matrix (for k = 1, 2, and 3) as well as the method for deriving such recurrence…
We characterize ratios of permanents of (generalized) submatrices which are bounded on the set of all totally positive matrices. This provides a permanental analog of results of Fallat, Gekhtman, and Johnson [{\em Adv.\ Appl.\ Math.} {\bf…
The non-decreasing condition on g-vectors is introduced. Our study shows that this condition is both necessary and sufficient to ensure that the generically indecomposable direct summands of a given g-vector are linearly independent.…
A vector space is commonly defined as a set that satisfies several conditions related to addition and scalar multiplication. However, for beginners, it may be hard to immediately grasp the essence of these conditions. There are probably a…
Let $M_{n}$ denote a random symmetric $n\times n$ matrix, whose entries on and above the diagonal are i.i.d. Rademacher random variables (taking values $\pm 1$ with probability $1/2$ each). Resolving a conjecture of Vu, we prove that the…
It is well known that in a generally covariant gravitational theory the choice of spacetime scalars as coordinates yields phase-space observables (or "invariants"). However their relation to the symmetry group of diffeomorphism…
Perpetual points (PPs) are special critical points for which the magnitude of acceleration describing dynamics drops to zero, while the motion is still possible (stationary points are excluded), e.g. considering the motion of the particle…
We fully develop the concept of causal symmetry introduced in Class. Quant. Grav. 20 (2003) L139. A causal symmetry is a transformation of a Lorentzian manifold (V,g) which maps every future-directed vector onto a future-directed vector. We…
We report on a computational and experimental study of permanents. On the computational side, we use the GPU to greaatly accelerate the computation of permanents over $\mathbb{C},$ $\mathbb{R},$ $\mathbb{F}_p$ and $\mathbb{Q}.$ First, for…
We introduce a new notion of the determinant, called symmetrized determinant, for a square matrix with the entries in an associative algebra $\AA$. The monomial expansion of the symmetrized determinant is obtained from the standard…
A $d$-dimensional matrix is called \emph{$1$-polystochastic} if it is non-negative and the sum over each line equals~$1$. Such a matrix that has a single $1$ in each line and zeros elsewhere is called a \emph{$1$-permutation} matrix. A…

The purpose of this article is to study determinants of matrices which are known as generalized Pascal triangles (see [1]). We present a factorization by expressing such a matrix as a product of a unipotent lower triangular matrix, a…
