Abstract: In this paper we discuss minimal primes over permanental ideals of generic matrices. We give a complete list of the minimal primes over ideals of $ 3 \times 3$ permanents of a generic matrix, and show that there are monomials in the ideal of maximal permanents of a $ d \times (2d-1)$ matrix if the characteristic of the ground field is sufficiently large. We also discuss the Alon-Jaeger-Tarsi Conjecture, using our results and techniques to strengthen the previously known results.
