An integer-valued matrix $\mathbf{A}$ is $\Delta$-modular if each $\text{rank}(\mathbf{A}) \times \text{rank}(\mathbf{A})$ submatrix has determinant at most $\Delta$ in absolute value. The column number problem is to determine the maximum…

Consider a matrix $M$ chosen uniformly at random from a class of $m \times n$ matrices of zeros and ones with prescribed row and column sums. A partially filled matrix $D$ is a $\mathit{defining}$ $\mathit{set}$ for $M$ if $M$ is the unique…

Motivated by complexity questions in integer programming, this paper aims to contribute to the understanding of combinatorial properties of integer matrices of row rank $r$ and with bounded subdeterminants. In particular, we study the…

The alternate row and column scaling algorithm applied to a positive $n\times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic matrix $S(A)$, sometimes called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. For every positive integer $n$, a two parameter…

The problem of extracting a well conditioned submatrix from any rectangular matrix (with normalized columns) has been studied for some time in functional and harmonic analysis; see…

This paper studies the "explanation problem" for tree- and linearly-ordered array data, a problem motivated by database applications and recently solved for the one-dimensional tree-ordered case. In this paper, one is given a matrix A whose…

The extremal function $ex(n, P)$ is the maximum possible number of ones in any 0-1 matrix with $n$ rows and $n$ columns that avoids $P$. A 0-1 matrix $P$ is called minimally non-linear if $ex(n, P) = \omega(n)$ but $ex(n, P') = O(n)$ for…

Many inference techniques for multivariate data analysis assume that the rows of the data matrix are realizations of independent and identically distributed random vectors. Such an assumption will be met, for example, if the rows of the…

This paper presents a framework based on matrices of monoids for the study of coupled cell networks. We formally prove within the proposed framework, that the set of results about invariant synchrony patterns for unweighted networks also…

A binary matrix $M$ has the consecutive ones property ($C1P$) for rows (resp. columns) if there is a permutation of its columns (resp. rows) that arranges the ones consecutively in all the rows (resp. columns). If $M$ has the $C1P$ for rows…

We introduce near triple arrays as binary row-column designs with at most two consecutive values for the replication numbers of symbols, for the intersection sizes of pairs of rows, pairs of columns and pairs of a row and a column. Near…

The number of non-negative integer matrices with given row and column sums appears in a variety of problems in mathematics and statistics but no closed-form expression for it is known, so we rely on approximations of various kinds. Here we…

The forbidden number $\mathrm{forb}(m,F)$, which denotes the maximum number of unique columns in an $m$-rowed $(0,1)$-matrix with no submatrix that is a row and column permutation of $F$, has been widely studied in extremal set theory.…

In this work an efficient algorithm to perform a block decomposition (and so to compute the rank) of large dense rectangular matrices with entries in $\mathbb{F}_2$ is presented. Depending on the way the matrix is stored, the operations…

This paper studies the problem of decomposing a low-rank matrix into a factor with binary entries, either from $\{\pm 1\}$ or from $\{0,1\}$, and an unconstrained factor. The research answers fundamental questions about the existence and…

We study $m \times n$ matrices whose columns are of the form \[\{(a_{1j},\ldots, a_{nj}): \quad a_{1j} = \lambda_j,\ a_{ij} = \pm\lambda_j\ , \ \lambda_j >0 ,\ j=1,2,\ldots,n\}.\] We explicitly construct for all $a = (a_1,\ldots,…

We consider two matrix completion problems, in which we are given a matrix with missing entries and the task is to complete the matrix in a way that (1) minimizes the rank, or (2) minimizes the number of distinct rows. We study the…

A binary matrix has the consecutive ones property (C1P) if it is possible to order the columns so that all 1s are consecutive in every row. In [McConnell, SODA 2004 768-777] the notion of incompatibility graph of a binary matrix was…

An $r$-matrix is a matrix with symbols in $\{0,1,\ldots,r-1\}$. A matrix is simple if it has no repeated columns. Let ${\cal F}$ be a finite set of $r$-matrices. Let $\hbox{forb}(m,r,{\cal F})$ denote the maximum number of columns possible…

The nonnegative integer rank of a matrix is a variant of the classical nonnegative rank, introduced in the 1980s, where factorizations are required to have integer entries. While computing nonnegative integer rank is generally very hard, we…
