Abstract
A 0-1 matrix contains a 0-1 matrix pattern if we can obtain from by deleting rows and/or columns and turning arbitrary 1-entries into 0s. The saturation function for a 0-1 matrix pattern indicates the minimum number of 1s in an 0-1 matrix that does not contain , but changing any 0-entry into a 1-entry creates an occurrence of . Fulek and Keszegh recently showed that each pattern has a saturation function either in or in . We fully classify the saturation functions of permutation matrices.
