The Extreme Points of Certain Polytopes of Doubly Substochastic Matrices

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Let ω π n and ω t&h n denote the convex polytope of n × n centrosymmetric doubly substochastic matrices and the convex polytope of n × n symmetric and Hankel-symmetric doubly substochastic matrices, respectively. In this paper, we investigate and fully characterize the extreme points of ω π n and ω t&h n which generalizes the results by Brualdi and Cao in [Brualdi RA, Cao L. Symmetric, Hankel-symmetric, and centrosymmetric doubly stochastic matrices. ActaMath Vietnam. 2018;43:675–700].
