This paper proposes a general algorithm called Store-zechin for quickly computing the permanent of an arbitrary square matrix. Its key idea is storage, multiplexing, and recursion. That is, in a recursive process, some sub-terms which have…
Consider an $N\times n$ random matrix $Y_n=(Y^n_{ij})$ where the entries are given by $Y^n_{ij}=\frac{\sigma_{ij}(n)}{\sqrt{n}}X^n_{ij}$, the $X^n_{ij}$ being independent and identically distributed, centered with unit variance and…
In 2022, Z.-W. Sun defined \begin{equation*} w_k^{(\alpha)}{(x)}=\sum_{j=1}^{k}w(k,j)^{\alpha}x^{j-1}, \end{equation*} where $k,\alpha$ are positive integers and $w(k,j)=\frac{1}{j}\binom{k-1}{j-1}\binom{k+j}{j-1}$. Let $(x)_{0}=1$ and…
We show that the permanent of an $n \times n$ matrix with iid Bernoulli entries $\pm 1$ is of magnitude $n^{({1/2}+o(1))n}$ with probability $1-o(1)$. In particular, it is almost surely non-zero.
Product identities in two variables $x, q$ expand infinite products as infinite sums, which are linear combinations of theta functions; famous examples include Jacobi's triple product identity, Watson's quintuple identity, and Hirschhorn's…
In this paper we investigate the permanent of $(-1,1)$-matrices over fields of zero characteristics and our main goal is to provide a sharp upper bound for the value of the permanent of such matrices depending on matrix rank, solving Wang's…
Let $A$ be an $n \times n$ positive definite Hermitian matrix with all eigenvalues between 1 and 2. We represent the permanent of $A$ as the integral of some explicit log-concave function on ${\Bbb R}^{2n}$. Consequently, there is a fully…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field and $f : \mathfrak{S}_n \rightarrow \mathbb{F} \setminus \{0\}$ be an arbitrary map. The Schur matrix functional associated to $f$ is defined as $M \in \text{M}_n(\mathbb{F}) \mapsto…
A recent conjecture of Caputo, Carlen, Lieb, and Loss, and, independently, of the author, states that the maximum of the permanent of a matrix whose rows are unit vectors in l_p is attained either for the identity matrix I or for a constant…
For any $m,n\in\mathbb{N}$ we first give new proofs for the following well known combinatorial identities \begin{equation*} S_n(m)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^n\binom{n}{k}\frac{(-1)^{k-1}}{k^m}=\sum\limits_{n\geq r_1\geq r_2\geq...\geq r_m\geq…
In this article, we study the ideal generated by $2\times 2$ permanents of a symmetric matrix. We denote this ideal by $P_2(X)$ where $X$ is a symmetric matrix. We compute a Gr\"obner basis, dimension, depth, minimal primes, and a primary…
We consider the polynomial equation $$X^n + a_{n-1}\cdot X^{n-1} + \dots + a_1 \cdot X + a_0 \cdot I = O,$$ over $(2 \times 2)$-matrices $X$ with the real entries, where $I$ is the identity matrix, $O$ is the null matrix, $a_i \in \mathbb…
We try to define the sequence of zeros of the Riemann zeta function by an intrinsic property. Let $(z_k)_{k\in \mathbb{N}}$ be the sequence of nontrivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ with positive imaginary part. We write $z_k= 1/2+i\tau_k$ (RH says…
We extend the notion of generalised Cesaro summation/convergence developed previously to the more natural setting of what we call "remainder" Cesaro summation/convergence and, after illustrating the utility of this approach in deriving…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a finite commutative ring, and let $\mathbb{L}$ be a commutative $\mathbb{K}$-algebra. Let $A$ and $B$ be two $n \times n$-matrices over $\mathbb{L}$ that have the same characteristic polynomial. The main result of this…
Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $f: M_n \rightarrow [0,\infty)$ be a continuous map such that $f(\mu UAU^*)= f(A)$ for any complex unit $\mu$, $A \in M_n$ and unitary $U \in M_n$, $f(X)=0$ if and only if $X=0$…
Let $(a_n), (b_n)$ be linear recursive sequences of integers with characteristic polynomials $A(X),B(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ respectively. Assume that $A(X)$ has a dominating and simple real root $\alpha$, while $B(X)$ has a pair of conjugate…
Let S and T be sets of positive integers and let a be a fixed positive integer. An a-shifted partition identity has the form p(S,n)=p(T,n-a), for all n greater or equal to a. Here p(S,n) is the number partitions of n whose parts are…
It is known by a formula of Hasse-Sondow that the Riemann zeta function is given, for any $ s=\sigma+it \in \mathbb{C}$, by $ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \widetilde{A}(n,s)$ where $$ \widetilde{A}(n,s):=\frac{1}{2^{n+1}(1-2^{1-s})} \sum_{k=0}^n…
