Combinatorics of signed oriented graphs/skew-symmetric matrices
Consider a "complete" signed graph on $n$ vertices indexed by
$1,2,\dots,n$, that is, a graph in which any two distinct vertices $i$ and $j$ are connected by an oriented edge.
For each pair of ...

Number of invertible {0,1} real matrices?
This question is inspired from here, where it was asked what possible determinants an $n \times n$ matrix with entries in {0,1} can have over $\mathbb{R}$.
My question is: how many such matrices ...

Number of unique determinants for an NxN (0,1)-matrix
I'm interested in bounds for the number of unique determinants of NxN (0,1)-matrices. Obviously some of these matrices will be singular and therefore will trivially have zero determinant. While it ...

Lifting matrices mod 2 to integers.
The following question was motivated by my research.
Consider a $n\times n$ matrix whose elements are $0$'s or $1$'s such that the determinant is odd. The question is: is it possible to assign signs ...

Convert a confusion matrix to a distance/covariance matrix
Suppose I have a confusion matrix $A$ for a set of points: entry $i,j$ is the fraction of time over all $j$ (and similarly over all $i$) that when $i$ is present then $j$ is recognized (This means ...

Orthogonal matrices with small entries
Is it true that for any $n$, there exists a $n \times n$ real orthogonal matrix with all coefficients bounded (in absolute value) by $C/\sqrt{n}$, $C$ being an absolute constant ?
Some remarks :
If ...
