Abstract: Kasteleyn stated that the generating function of the perfect matchings of a graph of genus g may be written as a linear combination of 4 g Pfaffians. Here we prove this statement. As a consequence we present a combinatorial way to compute permanents of square matrices. Other consequences will be presented in a forthcoming paper. Supported by DONET, GACR 0194 and GAUK 194 0 1 Introduction We present a theory of Pfaffian orientations of graphs, introduced by Kasteleyn ([7, 6, 5]). Our... (Update)
