Number of ways to place 4 kings on nxn chessboard
I have a $n\times n$ chessboard and 4 kings inside it. My goal is to count the number of arrangements where some of them are non-attacking or mutually attacking, for example:
In the case where the $4$...

On full rank submatrices of a construction
Take two matrices $T_1$ and $T_2$ in $\mathbb Z^{n\times n}$ with entries uniformly in $[-b,b]\cap\mathbb Z$ at some $b>0$. The matrices will be of rank $n$ each with probability at least $1-\frac1{...

Average number of elements of a subset S of a matrix A after inducing the rows and columns of m randomly selected elements from subset S
Let $A_{N{\times}N}$ be an $N{\times}N$ matrix and $\mathcal{S_{k}}$ be a subset of elements in $A$ such that exactly $k$ elements from every row and column in $A$ are in $\mathcal{S_{k}}$. Thus, $\...

Probability that random Bernoulli matrix is full rank
This is probably known already, but I could not find a quick argument.
Let $M$ be an $n\times m$ binary matrix with iid Bernoulli$(1/2)$ entries, and $n>m$. Tikhomirov recently settled that the ...

0-1 matrix combinatorial problem
Let $M \in \{0,1\}^{n \times n}$ and let $r_i$ be its $i$-th row. Given constant $p \in (0,1/2]$, let the number of $1$s in each row be at least $p\,n$. Given constant $c \in (0,1)$, what is the ...

Quantum coupon collection: positivity of an alternating sum of matrices
It is well-known that in the classic coupon collecting problem (CCP), the expected waiting time is
\begin{equation*}
T_n(x_1,\ldots,x_n) = \sum_{k=1}^n (-1)^{k+1}\sum_{1\le i_1 < \cdots < i_k \...

On rank of random $0/1$ matrices
It is known that a $0/1$ matrix picked from uniform distribution from $\{0,1\}^{n\times n}$ is non-singular with probability $1-o(1)$.
Fix an integer $t$.
Consider a random matrix formed the ...

A simple proof for a theorem of Szekeres and Turán
Szekeres and Turán found in 1937 a formula for the sum of the squares and the sum of the fourth powers of determinants of all $n$ by $n$ matrices with $\pm 1$ entries. (The sum of squares case follows ...

The Fourier Transform of taking Eigenvalues
The purpose of this question is to ask about the Fourier transform of the map which associate to an $n$ by $n$ matrix its $n$ eigenvalues, or some function of the $n$ eigenvalues. The main motivation ...

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 ...
