Nov 11, 2012 at 16:48 comment added Yuichiro Fujiwara This is kind of irrelevant now that we know OP meant avoiding constant submatrices of adjacent rows and columns, but you can get a $3 \times 5$ matrix A avoiding constant $2 \times 2$ (general) submatrices by choosing $(1,0,0,0,1)$ as the third row; this choice is ok because your argument doesn't require the third row to have three $1$'s.
Nov 11, 2012 at 16:13 comment added verret I assumed that you meant any sub-matrix, but now I see that you meant only submatrices consisting of adjacent rows and columns. Maybe you should clarify your question.
Nov 11, 2012 at 16:11 comment added jigsawmnc What about the case when m = 5 & n = 5 and the matrix is: 0 1 0 1 0 | 0 1 0 1 0 | 0 1 0 1 0 | 0 1 0 1 0 | 0 0 1 1 0 The above is a valid case.
