Spectral norm bound for lower triangular matrix
Let $A$ be a $0/1$ square matrix which can be permuted to a non singular or a singular lower triangular matrix. Determinant is either $0$ or $1$. Can we provide tighter upper bounds on its spectral ...

The calculation of permanent of a matrix
The permanent of an $n$-by- $n$ matrix $A=\left(a_{i j}\right)$ is defined as
$$
\operatorname{perm}(A)=\sum_{\sigma \in S_{n}} \prod_{i=1}^{n} a_{i, \sigma(i)}
$$
The sum here extends over all ...

Sum of number of perfect matchings and a constant constuction
Suppose we have two bipartite graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$ with perfect matching count $P_1$ and $P_2$ respectively then their disjoint union gives a bipartite graph with perfect matching $P_1P_2$.
Is ...

Mod $2$ of $\#PM(G)$ for arbitrary G?
Permanent mod $2$ of biadjacency gives polynomial time algorithm of $\#PM(G)\mod 2$ of perfect matchings of bipartite graph. Is there a similar efficient strategy for general graphs?

Number of extremal $\{0,1\}$ matrices having permanent $1$ property
Is there a function which describes the number of $\{0,1\}^{n\times n}\cap\mathbb Z^{n\times n}$ matrices having permanent $1$?
I think it might be $\mathsf{poly}(n!)$ bounded.
Is there a function ...
