The Pfaffian is a mathematical function associated with a skew-symmetric matrix, which is a specific type of square matrix \\( A \\) where \\( A^\\top = -A \\), meaning that the transpose of the matrix is equal to its negative. The Pfaffian is useful in various areas of mathematics, including combinatorics, algebraic topology, and theoretical physics.
