PERMANENTAL REPRESENTATION OF PERFECT
MATCHINGS IN BIPARTITE GRAPHS ASSOCIATED
WITH PADOVAN NUMBERS

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the relationship between Padovan numbers and perfect matchings of a certain type of bipartite graphs. Then we give a Maple procedure in order to calculate the number of perfect matchings of this family.
