Taranenko's extension to positive permanents of polystochastic matrices
Taranenko's extension to positive permanents of polystochastic matrices
A -dimensional polystochastic matrix of order is a nonnegative -dimensional array whose entries on every line sum to . Its permanent is the sum of the products selected by diagonals. Taranenko's conjecture. The permanent of every polystochastic matrix of odd order or even dimension is positive.
This statement is presented as an extension of Wanless's conjecture from multidimensional permutations to all polystochastic matrices. The source does not state that the extension has been resolved.
