An update on Mincs survey of open problems involving permanents

Cheon, Gi-Sang; Wanless, Ian

Description

The progress made on the conjecture and open problems listed in H.Minc's survey articles on the theory of permanents, is discussed. A noteworthy feature of these surveys was a catalogue of conjectures and open problems which spurred advances in the field. The problems included finding an algorithm for the characteristic polynomial of the kth permanental compound of a given square matrix. The problems also included finding an algorithm for the perron root of the kth permanental compound of a...[Show more]

A noteworthy feature of these surveys was a catalogue of conjectures and open problems which spurred advances in the field. The problems included finding an algorithm for the characteristic polynomial of the kth permanental compound of a given square matrix. The problems also included finding an algorithm for the perron root of the kth permanental compound of a given non-negative square matrix.
