On extensions of the Alon-Tarsi Latin square conjecture
The electronic journal of combinatorics, Tome 19 (2012) no. 4
Expressions involving the product of the permanent with the $(n-1)^{st}$ power of the determinant of a matrix of indeterminates, and of (0,1)-matrices, are shown to be related to an extension to odd dimensions of the Alon-Tarsi Latin Square Conjecture, first stated by Zappa. These yield an alternative proof of a theorem of Drisko, stating that the extended conjecture holds for Latin squares of odd prime order. An identity involving an alternating sum of permanents of (0,1)-matrices is obtained.
