Probability of zero in a random matrix

Let $M(n,k)$ be the set of $n\times n$ matrices of nonnegative integers such that every row and every column sums to $k$. Let $P(n,k)$ be the fraction of such matrices which have no zero entries, ...

Lipschitz-continuity of convex polytopes under the Hausdorff metric

Recently, I proved the following Lipschitz-continuity like result for convex polytopes: Let $A\in\mathbb R^{m\times n}$ and $b,b'\in\mathbb R^m$ be given such that $\{x\,:\,Ax\leq 0\}=\{0\}$ (which ...

Efficient $H$ representation of matrices with distinct cyclic shift permuted entries

Given points $v_1,\dots,v_n\in\mathbb Z^n$ in codimesion $1$ hyperplane $x_1+\dots+x_n=t$ with $0\leq x_{i}$ and a cyclic shift permutation $\sigma$ where $v_1,\dots,v_n$ when written as columns of ...

Combinatorial proof of a matrix equation

I'm looking for combinatorial proofs (using, e.g., trees) of the following particular matrix equation $(I)$ and also combinatoric operational analogs of its solution via matrix inversion and/or Cramer'...

Finding a point at which only certain linear functionals are integral

Let $C$ be a full-dimensional rational polyhedral cone in $\Bbb R^d$ with facets $G_1,\ldots,G_n$ . For each $i$, let $h_i$ be an integer-valued linear functional on $\Bbb R^d$ whose kernel is the ...

Can convex combinations of indicator functions for pairwise non-disjoint sets unordered by inclusion dominate one another?

Let $N$ be a finite subset of the naturals. Let $P$ be a set of subsets of $N$ such that: 1) $P\neq \varnothing$, 2) $\forall x\in P, |x| >1$, 3) $\forall x,y\in P,$ if $x\neq y$, then $x\not\...
