โฆ Synopsis
For a tree T of order n, let (T ) = {X โ n | X A(T ) + I n }, where n denotes the set of all doubly stochastic matrices of order n and A(T ) denotes the adjacency matrix of T , and let ยต(T ) denote the minimum permanent of matrices in (T ). Let P n denote the path of length n -1 and K 1,n-1 the complete bipartite graph on 1 + (n -1) vertices. In this paper, it is shown that P n and K 1,n-1 are the only trees with minimal and maximal ยต-values respectively among all trees of order n.

For n 3 6, we determine the minimum permanents and minimizing matrices on the faces of R3+,, the polytope of (3 + n) x (3 + n) doubly stochastic matrices. whose nonzero entries coincide with those of where J is the matrix with all entries equal 1, I the identity matrix, and 0 the zero matrix.
