In the present paper we prove an identity concerning Ptaflians similar to the wellknown Grassmann PlΓΌcker relations for determinants, using tools from multilinear algehra. More precisely, we shall derive the identity as a corollary to an equation concerning skew-symmetric bilinear forms and operator

We give a simple proof of an occupancy tail bound in the balls and bins experiment using the method of bounded differences in expected form. We also indicate how a short, calculation-free proof of another occupancy tail bound follows from an extension of the standard Chernoff᎐Hoeffding bounds to var

This paper highlights three known identities, each of which involves sums over alternating sign matrices. While proofs of all three are known, the only known derivations are as corollaries of difficult results. The simplicity and natural combinatorial interpretation of these identities, however, sug
