Characterization of polystochastic matrices of order $4$ with zero permanent

A multidimensional nonnegative matrix is called polystochastic if the sum of its entries over each line is equal to $1$. The permanent of a multidimensional matrix is the sum of products of entries over all diagonals. We prove that if $d$ is even, then the permanent of a $d$-dimensional polystochastic matrix of order $4$ is positive, and for odd $d$, we give a complete characterization of $d$-dimensional polystochastic matrices with zero permanent.

An asymptotic lower bound on the number of bent functions

A Boolean function $f$ on $n$ variables is said to be a bent function if the absolute value of all its Walsh coefficients is $2^{n/2}$. Our main result is a new asymptotic lower bound on the number of Boolean bent functions. It is based on a modification of the Maiorana--McFarland family of bent functions and recent progress in the estimation of the number of transversals in latin squares and hypercubes. By-products of our proofs are the asymptotics of the logarithm of the numbers of partitions of the Boolean hypercube into $2$-dimensional affine and linear subspaces.

Upper bounds on the permanent of multidimensional (0,1)-matrices

The permanent of a multidimensional matrix is the sum of products of entries over all diagonals. By Minc's conjecture, there exists a reachable upper bound on the permanent of 2-dimensional (0,1)-matrices. In this paper we obtain some generalizations of Minc's conjecture to the multidimensional case. For this purpose we prove and compare several bounds on the permanent of multidimensional (0,1)-matrices. Most estimates can be used for matrices with nonnegative bounded entries.
