Consider a real square matrix $A$ of size $n\times n$. Under which conditions on $A$ does there exist a row-stochastic matrix $U$ (non-negative, rowsums = 1), such that $A'=U^{-1}AU$ is a non-negative ...

Question: Under which conditions on $A, B\in\mathbb{R}^{N\times N}$ is the function $f: \mathbb{R}^N\mapsto \mathbb{R}^N$, $$f(v) = A[v]_+ + B[-v]_+$$ surjective? Here $[.]_+$ is an elementwise ...
