Proofs of five conjectures relating permanents to combinatorial sequences.

In this paper, we prove five conjectures on the evaluations of permanents, relating them to Genocchi numbers of the first and second kinds as well as Euler numbers. For example, we prove that $$\mathrm{per}\left[\left\lfloor\frac{2j-k}{n}\right\rfloor\right]_{1\le j,k\le n}=2(2^{n+1}-1)B_{n+1},$$ where $\lfloor\cdot\rfloor$ is the floor function and $B_0,B_1,\ldots$ are the Bernoulli numbers. This was previously conjectured by the third author.
