In the study of inequalities, the cases of equality are often the most difficult and interesting part. The case of equality is, in some sense, a measure of the tightness of the inequality. In this paper, we generalize two inequalities of Brualdi and Newman [1, Theorems 3, 4], but the instances of equality are probably more interesting because of the variety of cases which can occur.Let A = (aij ) be an n × n matrix. Define the permanent of A by We say that A is row stochastic if all entries are non-negative and all row sums are 1. In [1], several inequalities involving permanents of row stochastic matrices were proved. In two of these results, the case of equality was not determined. We will generalize both of these results to a class of functions which includes the permanent, and determine all cases of equality.
