On an optimization question
Suppose we have a square matrix $M=(1-z)A+zB$ where $A,B$ have integer entries from $\{0,1\}$ with $\det(A)+\det(B)=1$ and $\det(A),\det(B),per(A),per(B)\in\{0,1\}$ and we want to find $z\in[0,1]$ ...

Is the matrix $\left({2m\choose 2j-i}\right)_{i,j=1}^{2m-1}$ nonsingular?
Suppose we have a $(2m-1) \times (2m-1)$ matrix defined as follows:
$$\left({2m\choose 2j-i}\right)_{i,j=1}^{2m-1}.$$
For example, if $m=3$, the matrix is
$$\begin{pmatrix}6 & 20 & 6& 0 ...
