Abstract

Let p_n be the maximal sum of the entries of A², where A is a square matrix of size n, consisting of the numbers 1, 2, . . ., n², each appearing exactly once. We prove that p_n = Θ(n⁷). More precisely, we show that n(240n⁶ + 28n⁵ + 364n⁴ + 210n² − 28n + 26 − 105((−1)ⁿ + 1))/840 ≤ p_n ≤ n³(n² + 1)(7n² + 5)/24.
