Recursive matrices are ubiquitous in combinatorics, which have been extensively studied. We focus on the study of the sums of 2 × 2 minors of certain recursive matrices, the alternating sums of their 2 × 2 minors, and the sums of their 2 × 2 permanents. We obtain some combinatorial identities related to these sums, which generalized the work of Sun and Ma (2014) [23,24]. With the help of the computer algebra package HolonomicFunctions, we further get some new identities involving Narayana polynomials.
