Permanent of a matrix #

This file defines the permanent of a matrix, Matrix.permanent, and some of its properties.

Main definitions #

def Matrix.permanent {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] (M : Matrix n n R) :
R

The permanent of a square matrix defined as a sum over all permutations. This is analogous to the determinant but without alternating signs.

Equations
  • M.permanent = σ : Equiv.Perm n, i : n, M (σ i) i

    theorem Matrix.permanent_diagonal {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] {d : nR} :

    theorem Matrix.permanent_eq_one_of_card_eq_zero {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] {A : Matrix n n R} (h : Fintype.card n = 0) :
    A.permanent = 1

    theorem Matrix.permanent_unique {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] {n : Type u_3} [Unique n] [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] (A : Matrix n n R) :
    A.permanent = A default default

    If n has only one element, the permanent of an n by n matrix is just that element. Although Unique implies DecidableEq and Fintype, the instances might not be syntactically equal. Thus, we need to fill in the args explicitly.

    theorem Matrix.permanent_eq_elem_of_subsingleton {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] [Subsingleton n] (A : Matrix n n R) (k : n) :
    A.permanent = A k k
    theorem Matrix.permanent_eq_elem_of_card_eq_one {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] {A : Matrix n n R} (h : Fintype.card n = 1) (k : n) :
    A.permanent = A k k

    theorem Matrix.permanent_transpose {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] (M : Matrix n n R) :
    M.transpose.permanent = M.permanent

    Transposing a matrix preserves the permanent.

    theorem Matrix.permanent_permute_cols {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] (σ : Equiv.Perm n) (M : Matrix n n R) :
    (M.submatrix (⇑σ) id).permanent = M.permanent

    Permuting the columns does not change the permanent.

    theorem Matrix.permanent_permute_rows {n : Type u_1} [DecidableEq n] [Fintype n] {R : Type u_2} [CommSemiring R] (σ : Equiv.Perm n) (M : Matrix n n R) :
    (M.submatrix id σ).permanent = M.permanent

    Permuting the rows does not change the permanent.
