Reduced local-complete-intersection conjecture for lines on the permanental hypersurface

Let Pn,nnP_{n,n}^n be the permanental hypersurface of n×nn\times n matrices, and let F1(Pn,nn)\mathbf{F}_1(P_{n,n}^n) be its Fano scheme of lines. Reduced local-complete-intersection conjecture. The scheme F1(Pn,nn)\mathbf{F}_1(P_{n,n}^n) has dimension

2n2n5,2n^2-n-5,

which is the expected dimension, and is a reduced local complete intersection. The claim concerns the all-nn case; the paper reports verification of the corresponding expected-dimension behavior for n=3n=3 and 44.
