Pal's permanent conjecture: proof for block uniform matrices

Consider a symmetric function $\mathcal{C}(x,y)$ on $[0,1]\times[0,1]$ which is twice continuously differentiable up to the boundary, and which satisfies $ \mathcal{C}(x,y)=\mathcal{C}(1-x,1-y)$. Let $A^{(n)} = \big(a^{(n)}_{i,j}\, :\, i,j \in [n]\big)$ be the matrix with entries $a^{(n)}_{i,j}\, =\
