Motivated by Question 402249 of Zhi-Wei Sun, I consider the permanent of matrices $$e(n)=\mathrm{per}\left[\operatorname{sgn} \left(\tan\pi\frac{j+k}n \right)\right]_{1\le j,k\le n-1},$$ where $n$ is ...

I'm trying to find an efficient algorithm/technique to calculate, or approximate, the permanent of a matrix. After reading some literature, it seems nothing exists faster than Ryser's algorithm in the ...

Given a $\pm1$ matrix $M$ of rank $r$ let the largest subdeterminant be $d$ and let the largest subpermanent be $p$. Are there relations/bounds that connect $r$, $d$ and $p$? Are there geometric and ...

Let $J$ be all $1$ matrix. Suppose permanent of $M$ is $p$ and $a\in\Bbb Z$. Is there a closed formula or at least a faster than Ryser's technique to find $Permanent(M+aJ)$?
