The enumeration problem of Latin rectangles is formulated in terms of permanents, and two 'hard' inequalities of permanents are applied in a squeezing manner, both giving and suggesting asymptotic formulas.

Let A be an m\_n matrix in which the entries of each row are all distinct. A. A. Drisko (1998, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 84, 181 195) showed that if m 2n&1, then A has a transversal: a set of n distinct entries with no two in the same row or column. We generalize this to matrices with entries in the
In a given graph G, a set of vertices S with an assignment of colors is said to be a defining set of the vertex coloring of G, if there exists a unique extension of the colors of S to a z(G)coloring of the vertices of G. The concept of a defining set has been studied, to some extent, for block desig
