Totally Uni-modular Matrices - MathOverflow most recent 30 from http://mathoverflow.net 2013-05-19T18:11:28Z http://mathoverflow.net/feeds/question/99958 http://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.5/rdf http://mathoverflow.net/questions/99958/totally-uni-modular-matrices Totally Uni-modular Matrices Clark 2012-06-19T00:41:28Z 2012-06-19T00:41:28Z <p>A matrix is totally uni-modular if the determinant of any (square) sub-matrix is {+1, 0, -1}. My question is, "Is there a way to transform(linear or non) a general matrix into a totally uni-modular matrix?" or, "Are there only certain matrices that can be transformed in such a way?" This is for an application in Linear (convex) optimization.</p> <p>Thanks, Clark</p>
