关于0 - 1矩阵的逆矩阵具有相同模的元素

On 0--1 matrices whose inverses have entries of the same modulus

Xavier Martínez-Rivera

摘要:

Barrett、Butler和Hall的一个猜想可以表述如下:如果$n \geq 3$和$A \in \{0,1\}^{n \times n}$($n \times n$ 0 - 1矩阵族)是一个非奇异对称矩阵,则下列两个命题等价:(a)$n-2$阶$A$的所有主子式都为零;以及(b)$A^{-1}$是一个矩阵,其所有元素具有相同的模,并且其所有对角线元素相等。我们表明,这一猜想成立,如果$A$不同时有一个零和一个非零的主要次要的顺序$n-4$(如果$n \geq 5$)。探讨了$n-2$阶主子式均为零的非奇异对称矩阵$A \in \{0,1\}^{n \times n}$的主子式的奇偶性,特别是证明了这种矩阵的行列式均为偶数.对于任意(不一定对称)非奇异矩阵$A \in \{0,1\}^{n \times n}$与$n\geq 3$,我们建立了$A^{-1}$是所有元素具有相同模的矩阵的必要条件,这些条件的例子如下:$A$的每一行和每一列具有偶数个非零元素; $A^{-1}$的每一个元素是偶数的倒数; $\det(A)$是偶数; $A$的任何两行之间的差以及$A$的任何两列之间的差具有偶数个非零条目;如果$A$是对称的,则$A$具有偶数个非零对角条目;如果$A$是对称的,并且$\vec{a}_k$是$A$的第$k$列,则$A-\vec{a}_k\vec{a}_k^T$具有偶数个非零对角项。

英文摘要:

A conjecture of Barrett, Butler and Hall may be stated as follows: If $n \geq 3$ and $A \in \{0,1\}^{n \times n}$ (the family of $n \times n$ 0--1 matrices) is a nonsingular symmetric matrix, then the following two statements are equivalent: (a) All of the principal minors of $A$ of order $n-2$ are zero; and (b) $A^{-1}$ is a matrix all of whose entries have the same modulus and all of whose diagonal entries are equal. We show that this conjecture holds if $A$ does not have both a zero and a nonzero principal minor of order $n-4$ (if $n \geq 5$). The parity of the principal minors of nonsingular symmetric matrices $A \in \{0,1\}^{n \times n}$ whose principal minors of order $n-2$ are all zero is explored, establishing, in particular, that the determinants of such matrices are all even. For an arbitrary (not necessarily symmetric) nonsingular matrix $A \in \{0,1\}^{n \times n}$ with $n\geq 3$, we establish necessary conditions for $A^{-1}$ to be a matrix all of whose entries have the same modulus; examples of such conditions are the following: each row and column of $A$ has an even number of nonzero entries; each entry of $A^{-1}$ is the reciprocal of an even integer; $\det(A)$ is even; the difference between any two rows of $A$, as well as the difference between any two columns of $A$, has an even number of nonzero entries; if $A$ is symmetric, then $A$ has an even number of nonzero diagonal entries; if $A$ is symmetric and $\vec{a}_k$ is the $k$th column of $A$, then $A-\vec{a}_k\vec{a}_k^T$ has an even number of nonzero diagonal entries.
