A Koteljanskii inequality for permanents
We prove a permanental analogue of Koteljanskii's inequality. If $A$ is an inverse $M$-matrix that becomes symmetric after a positive diagonal similarity, then $\mathrm{per}(A_{S\cup T})\,\mathrm{per}(A_{S\cap T})\ge\mathrm{per}(A_S)\,\mathrm{per}(A_T)$ for all $S,T\subseteq[n]$, where $A_S$ is the principal submatrix indexed by $S$. The proof expresses permanents as moments of a complex Gaussian vector and uses Ginibre's correlation inequality. Finally, an explicit counterexample shows that symmetry cannot be dropped.
